you got the right size bit in???

use the bit on a ratchet and either leave it in gear for the front and the back leave the handbrake on :y:

oooo i though you were on about the torx bits on the brake disc lol, as said breaker bar will do the job if you can get the bit onto it

also make sure its a torx bolt as sometimes there allen bolts
