Brake Pad: Testing and Inspection
Front Wheel
Since the brakes are self-adjusting, it is not possible to tell from the amount of brake pedal travel whether or not the brake pads al worn. It is therefore
essential to remove the wheels and check the thickness of the pads at the intervals specified in the service programme.
The brake pads should be changed if the thickness of the friction material is less than 5 mm (0.2 inch).
The brake pads are also fitted with an acoustic wear warning device which alerts the driver when pad thickness is below 3 mm (0.12 inch). When this
warning is heard the pads should be changed as soon as possible.
