Default Brake measurement definitions?? - 08-14-2003 , 07:48 AM






Have a 97 Accord V-6 that was inspectated at a Honda dealer in Pennsylvania.
Front Brakes 6 - b, rear brakes 7 - b. We were told that lots of pad was
left.
A week later noise emmits from the driver's rear wheel, took it in and we
were told thta the wear sensor is hitting the rotor... brake job fixed it
What does 6-b & 7-b equate to? Aweek from inspection??
Also slight warp to rear rotor and they said that they don't turn them
because they are to thin to start with? Can this be true?

The standard way to describe brake pad and rotor life is in millimeter
thickness. Ask the dealership what the codes mean. Dump them if they
won't tell you. Repair scams are popular even at dealerships.
