Hi, Does anyone know if a disk change is straightforward? The Haynes
Elantra (closest to a Lantra) manual says you have to remove the
entire 'Steering Knuckle' and then get the disc pressed off at a
garage though some models will just pull off after removing the
caliper. Anyone changed front disks on a Lantra?

I don't even know anyone, who knows anyone, who knows waht a Lantra is!

I think Lantras are non North American versions of upscale Elantras or
perhaps down scaled Sonatas. That said I owned a ORD once. That's right when
it broke down it wasn't Found on road dead.

The Lantra is the European version of the Elantra.
I had a closer inspection of the discs and they look like they fit
from the outside, so should come off without having to remove the hub
from the car first. Don't know how rusted on they get though; any tips
for removal other than smashing off with a big hammer which may damage
the wheel bearing?

Big hammer is definitely the way to go. If you plan on reinstalling the
discs, use either a heavy plastic or brass hammer to keep from damaging
the discs.

You can probably find very good service information at www.hmaservice.com
as long as you keep in mind that there may be small differences, most of
which I'd expect to be in the fuel injection system.

Hyundai also often introduces new models in other areas of the world prior
to the U.S. If the fourth digit of your VIN is D, tell the site you have a
2001 Elantra. If it's J, tell the site you have a 2000 Elantra.
