General Information, Brake Rotor Wear
Special Tools And Workshop Equipment Required
- Carbon-Ceramic Brake Wear Tester :VAS6813
The Check Occurs By Determining The Brake Rotor Thickness "And" The Wear Value With The :VAS6813 , Both Must Be Measured Three Times Respectively Around The Circumference.
The permitted minimum thickness of the brake rotor with "min.th" as well as the wear limit -C- for the :VAS6813 are engraved on the brake rotor cup.
The Wear Value -C- Is Different Depending On The Brake Rotor And The Measurement Location.
If the brake rotor thickness "min.th." falls short at one measuring point the brake rotor must be replaced. Refer to BRAKE ROTOR THICKNESS, CHECKING .
"or"
if during the check with the :VAS6813 one of the three wear values -C- is reached or falls short the brake rotor must be replaced. Refer to CHECKING WITH Carbon-Ceramic Brake Wear Tester .
The Wear Value -C- Is Different Depending On The Brake Rotor.
If there is abrasion both brake rotors on both sides of the axle must always be replaced.
