Just changed new pads for all wheels. Discs seemed to be worn e.g. 1 mm/side. Do anyone know the minimum  thickness of discs. I have air cooled both front and back and about 150 000 km behind.

Some discs have the minimum stamped on them...  :-/ Can't remember if they are present on Omega discs, nor have any clue of the minimum

edit: a quick look at the Brembo catalogue it states 18 mm minimum in front, 15mm rear

I'm sure the front disc minimum is a lot higher than that. Its around 25mm iirc.

Sounds about right to me Lee

New disc is 28mm so 25 can simply not be correct

Haynes say all cars from 98:
front new = 28mm min = 25mm
rear  new = 12mm min = 10mm.

Then I will stand corrected. Sorry. Thought that one could trust the Brembo catalogue...

 :-? It's only 1.5 mm per side.

autodata says the same thing,25mm min front and 10mm rear(solid rears)

Thanks for all info. Front 28/25 seems to be logical. For some reason I have air cooled discs also back. So they are also quit thick. Have to measure them once again. I already forgot that result.
