2. Jack up the car, jack it up and remove the wheels.
3. Measure the thickness of the brake discs. Measure at the thinnest point of the disc (see arrows in illustration), since due to the wear of the disk, a deflection of its surface is formed. In workshops, a special micrometer is used to measure the thickness of the brake disc.
The thickness of the brake disc can also be measured with a conventional caliper, but at the same time, a gasket of the appropriate thickness must be placed on both sides of the disc, for example, two coins.
To accurately determine the thickness of the brake disc, you need to subtract the thickness of the inserted coins or gaskets from the obtained value.
Attention! Measure the thickness of the brake disc at several points.
The dimensions of the brake discs are given in «Specifications».
When the minimum residual thickness is reached, the brake disc must be replaced.
If there are cracks or grooves on the disc with a depth of more than 0.5 mm, the brake disc should also be replaced with a new one.
4. Install the wheels in accordance with the labels applied during removal.
5. Screw in bolts of fastening of wheels and lower the car.
6. Tighten the wheel bolts in a cross pattern to 120 Nm.
