All of the following statements are true EXCEPT:
A) Pad lining thickness should never be checked with the caliper in place.
B) The thinner the pad lining is, the more rapid the wear will take place.
C) Uneven wear indicates that the pads are not sliding properly.
D) Uneven inner and outer pad wear can indicate a problem with the caliper piston not retracting or the caliper itself not releasing.
Pad Lining Thickness
The measurement of the thickness of the friction material on a brake pad, which is critical for brake efficiency.
Caliper Piston
A component within a brake caliper that moves to apply pressure on the brake pads against the rotor, facilitating vehicle stopping.
- Acknowledge the critical role of rotor measurement in the servicing of disc brakes.
- Comprehend the standards necessary for determining whether to replace or recondition rotors, covering measurements for rejection, and assessment criteria for the rotor.
