6. NOTE: If any of the readings vary by morethan 0.015 mm or the brake disc thickness
is less than the specified minimum, a new
brake disc must be installed and the brake
disc runout re-checked.
Check the brake disc thickness variation.
For additional information, refer to:Specifications (206-00 Brake System -
General Information, Specifications).
• Using a suitable micrometer, measure the brake disc thickness at eight positions, 45
degrees apart and approximately 15 mm from
the outer edge of the brake disc.

7. If all the brake disc runout measurementsand the thickness variation are within the
specifications, check the wheel balance.
8. If just the brake disc runout measurement with the wheel and tire fitted exceeds the
specification, the wheel and tire must be
rotated through 90 degrees in relation to the
brake disc and the brake disc runout
re-checked.
• If the brake disc runout measurement still exceeds the specification, repeat the wheel and tire rotation and checking process until
the measurement is within specification.
9. If the brake disc runout measurement without the wheel and tire fitted is outside the
specification, check the wheel hub face
runout.
10. NOTE: Using paint or typing correction fluid, mark the position of the brake disc in
relation to the wheel hub.
Remove the brake disc.
11. NOTE: Make sure that the wheel hub face is clean and free of rust and foreign
material.
NOTE: Re-position the dial indicator gauge so that
it contacts the wheel hub approximately 10 mm
from the outer edge of the wheel hub.
Check the wheel hub face runout.• Slowly rotate the wheel hub and note the readings.

12. If the wheel hub runout exceeds 0.03 mm, install a new wheel hub.
For additional information, refer to: Wheel
Hub (204-01 Front Suspension, Removal
