911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet (997) F6-3.6L (2006)
Measure the brake disc thickness -X- in the area of the outer or inner friction surface track -arrows-, at a minimum of 3 different points (-A, B, C-)
offset by 120 degrees.
Measurement points for brake disc thickness
To do this, use a suitable micrometer or a brake disc gauge.
Bedding in the brake pads and brake discs
New brake pads require a bedding-in period of approx. 200 km (124 miles)! Only then do they achieve their best friction and wear coefficient. During
this period, the brakes should be subjected to full stress when travelling at high speed only in emergencies. The slightly reduced braking effect must be
compensated for by increased pressure on the brake pedal. The same also applies after replacing or machining brake discs.
