Hey, i am have my car up on blocks right now, to change the brake pads.. and when i got the lower caliper bolt off the i noticed the rotor was loose as hell. I finished taking the top caliper bolt off, and the rotor slipped off easy as pie. That to me does not seem right, but i cant find out how to bolt the rotor on, other than the 2 screw holes in the face near the lug holes. Im gonna move to the drivers side and hope its not the same way, but eagerly anticipating a response :)

Tried searching, but came up with a bunch of irrelevant threads. :thumb:


Edit: so there is no way to attach it.. so im feeling like a newbie for asking such a silly question. the caliper/lug bolts are the only things that hold the rotor on correct?
 
Usually the rotor is attached to the hub due to corrosion, but the only thing holding the rotor onto the hub is the wheel. Either the rotors are really new, or the lugnuts could have been a little loose and allowed the rotor to work loose.
