Note
When removing the inspection pin, ensure that the grinder
♦
does not move otherwise this can result in an incorrect meas‐
urement.
On certain vehicles (e.g. with steel rims), where the inspection
♦
pin - T40139A- does not reach/rests against the brake disc/
backing plate, check the brake pad thickness with the inspec‐
tion pin - T40139A- from the inside of the wheel.
Wear limit of front disc brake pads
The wear limit -a- is reached at a pad thickness of 7 mm, including
backing plate.
If the thickness of the pad is less than 7 mm including backing
plate, always replace the brake pads on both sides (repair meas‐
ure)

wear (minimum thickness) ⇒ Brake systems; Rep. gr. 00 .

times when the vehicle is stationary to ensure the brake pads are
properly seated in their normal operating position.

cluding backing plate.

plate, always replace the brake pads on both sides (repair meas‐
ure)
– Inspect also the brake discs for damage (scores, tears) and
wear (minimum thickness) ⇒ Brake systems; Rep. gr. 00 .
