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 -

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.
