Front Brake Disc Runout Check

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2024 Kia Forte. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Place a dial gauge about 10 mm (0.4 in.) from the outer circumference of the brake disc, and measure the runout of the disc.

If the measured disc runout larger than the limit and thickness thicker than the service limit of the disc, skim the brake disc and measure the runout again.
NOTE:
- Skim the disc according to the method of using each skimming lathe. (On-car mounting or external device)
- Do not skim the brake disc when it reaches the service limit.
If the runout of the brake disc still exceeds the limit specification, replace the disc, and then measure the runout again.
