The pad warning will come on when the pad is about 2/3rds warn, or possibly a bit earlier if the discs have a bit of a wear lip on them.

TBH, at 2/3rd worn, the pads begin to lose the ability to dissipate heat quickly enough, and at £15 a set for TC pads at a dealer....  :).  I like fresh, meaty pads!
