Brakes Inspection: Chamfer
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 18 other vehicles, including the 2016 Audi S4, 2016 Audi A4 Quattro, 2016 Audi A4, 2015 Audi S4, and 2015 Audi A4 Quattro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Chips on the edge -arrow- of the brake rotor are caused by mechanical damage.
The following are permitted:
- maximum width/depth = 2 mm.
- maximum length = 10 mm
- maximum number of chamfers on the brake rotor = 3
If any of these criteria are exceeded, replace the brake rotor.
Replace the brake rotors on both sides of the axle when:
- the brake rotors must be replaced because they are worn,
- the replacement brake rotor has been technically modified, which can be determined by the revised part number.
Brake pads likewise must always be replaced on both sides of the axle.
