Brake disc grub screw

[TheHoof]

I'm about to replace the brake discs on my 2004 mini. The discs are located / held in place when the wheel are removed with a small grub screw with a Torx head.

I assume that when I fit the new disc, I should put some anti seize on the thread - presumably this should be high temp and non-metallic. Can anyone suggest a suitable product?

copper slip would do it...anything really its not important

Okay thanks. I thought copper slip was a no no due to abs sensors.

Don't smear it on the ABS sensors, put it on the screw thread.

All providing you actually get said screw out.. I've had some pains in my time but nothing a good drill can't fix. Not needed anyway

Well done, that has to be the best reply ever & I'll bet you even wrote it with a straight face.
