Brake Pad Wear Check

WARNING:
  • Always replace both brake pads on each wheel as a set (both front wheels or both rear wheels). Failure to do so will result in uneven braking, which may cause unreliable brake operation.
  • If there is significant difference in the thickness of the pads on the left and right sides, check the moving parts.

Measure thickness at the thinnest, most worn area of the pad.

Replace the pad assembly if pad thickness is less than the limit value.

Standard value: 9.85 mm (0.39 inch) 

Limit: 2.0 mm (0.08 inch)
