Minimum Rotor Thickness?
Minimum Rotor Thickness?
Can anyone tell me what the min thicknesses are for the front and rear rotors? My dealer replaced the frons (20.3mm) but not the rears (9.1mm).
I'm at 34K and I figure I'll end up getting stuck doing the rears on my own.
Thanks!

Oh, and when you do get around to doing the rotors, realize that the caliper carrier bolts (not the allens) and the Torx bolts are probably torqued north of 120lb/ft from the factory/last ******* who did the job...I had to use a breaker bar and gobs of penetrating oil to get them loose and off. Take your time and don't strip them. I can show you a nice picture of a shattered, from the inside-out, non-impact socket I created when doing this job.
Carrier bolts should be 81 lb/ft (front), 48 lb/ft (rear), rotor torx bolt should be 20 lb/ft.
