I assume that the car in question is an RS turbo? You'd be best off getting the car checked over by the a good tuner and let them tell you what actuator you need. If there like sierra's they are held in by a spring clip that you can get to from under the bonnet next to the headlight. I can only assume that the discs are warpped. Get yourself a haynes manual it will help you alot.
