We evaluate the thickness of the brake pad linings through the caliper window.
We replace the brake pads of both front wheels if the thickness of the friction lining of any of the pads has reached the maximum permissible value - 1.5 mm.
Turning the brake disc, we inspect its working surfaces on both sides.
Light scratches are allowed on the working surfaces of the disc, but there should be no cracks or deep grooves.
Using a caliper, we measure the thickness of the disk, which should be at least 9.5 mm.
If, as a result of wear, a high flange has formed on the maximum diameter of the disc, which prevents an accurate measurement, we remove the flange using a file or other method, or measure the thickness of the disc with a micrometer.
We replace the brake disc with defects in the working surfaces or extreme wear.
We inspect the brake hoses. There should be no cracks, breaks or abrasions on the brake hoses. We check the condition of each hose by creating fluid pressure in the brake system. To do this, the assistant must press the brake pedal firmly and hold it during the inspection. The appearance of rubber swelling or brake fluid leakage from the hose and its tips is not allowed. If damage is detected, we replace the hoses.
