Visual Inspection Of The Surfaces Of The Brake Disc Friction Surfaces (Indication Of Wear)
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2013 Porsche 911, 2012 Porsche 911, 2011 Porsche 911, 2010 Porsche 911, and 2009 Porsche 911. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Information
- The friction surface changes occur due to material fatigue as a result of extremely high thermal load. These disc temperatures, which occur above all in racing conditions, cause a progressive material fatigue.
- Effects on driving: The surface change worsens the smoothness of braking, decreases the disc strength and increases the brake pad wear and therefore makes a precautionary parts replacement necessary.
The following illustrations (PCCB brake disc wear appearance) are to be used for damage assessment.
