Front Brake Pad: Inspection

Check the thickness (A) of the pad - disc brake front.

NOTE:

Always replace the pads of both wheels and both sides as a set.
Replace pad clips if they are twisted or worn.
Replace the pad if there is oil or grease on it.
Wear indicators are installed on the pad - disc brake front inner (other than STI model) or on the pad - disc brake front outer (STI model), and a squeaking sound is heard if the pad is worn to the limit.
