The brake caliper should not touch a rotor ever. There is a metal backing plate on the brake pad that can rub the rotor if the pad wears thin enough.
How do you change brake pad on s60
The brake pad wear sensor is on the brake pads. On my 318ti, the sensor is on the left side, on the inboard pad.
Carefully pry pad wear sensor from brake pad. Then insert brake pad wear sensor into cutout in new pad where applicable.
A brake pad is the friction surface, replaced as it wears, between the caliper and the rotor.
After your brake pads have been replaced, scroll to the brake pad life display. On the brake pad life display hold the scroll button in until the brake pad life goes to 100 percent.
It depends on the vehicle type, but generally - when your brake pad thickness is 2 mm it is time to change the brake pad.
If you are wondering what exactly is the average cost of a brake pad replacement because your previous brake pad is no good anymore, then the answer is around 200-400 dollars.
A brake pad is part of the brake system used in machines such as vehicles. The brake pad has a rough surface which converts kinetic energy that causes motion into thermal energy, thus stopping the vehicle.
Lift the car, remove the tire, remove the brake shoe/caliper and remove the old brake pad. Slide in the new brake pad, replace the brake shoe/caliper, replace the tire and lower the car.
the sensor is in the brake pad itself, it clips in top of brake pad
