  1. Remove dirt and rust from the brake disc surface.
  2. Measure the disc thickness at four positions or more.

    Standard value: 10.0 mm (0.4 inch) 

    Minimum limit: 8.4 mm (0.33 inch) 

  3. Thickness variations (at least 4 positions) should not be more than 0.015 mm (0.0006 inch).
  4. If the disc is thickness than 8.4 mm (0.33 inch) thick, replace it with a new one. If thickness variation exceeds the specification, turn rotor with an on-the-car brake lathe ("Accuturn-8750" or equivalent).

    If the calculated final thickness is less than the standard value, replace the disc.
