How do you remove a rusted front rotor on a 2005 honda accord? I removed the tire. romoved two screws on the center of the rotor. Used
wd40 penetrating oil, tapped the center with a
hammer, tapped around the rotor with a hammer
rust fell to the ground but the rotor did not
release.....Don't know what else I can do??
Need suggestions or if a tool is used for this
job.

You need to hit the face of the rotor (where the wheel studs are) with a hammer. You must hit it hard for it to shock loose.
