Disc Plate Thickness Inspection

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Mazda MX-5 Miata. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Measure the thickness of the disc plate.
    • If the thickness is not within the specification, replace the disc plate.
    CAUTION:
    • When it is necessary to machine the disc plate, if the disc plate is removed from the vehicle then machined, excessive runout may result. Machine the disc plate with it installed on the vehicle.

    Minimum thickness: 

    1. 8.0 mm {0.31 in} 

    Minimum thickness after machining by using a brake lathe on-vehicle: 

    1. 8.4 mm {0.33 in}
