Front Disc Rotor

REMOVAL

15 INCH TYPE & 16 INCH TYPE
1) Set the vehicle on a lift.
2) Loosen the wheel nuts.
3) Lift-up the vehicle, and then remove the front wheel.





4) Remove the caliper body and support from housing, and suspend it from strut using a wire.





5) Remove the disc rotor.

NOTE: If the disc rotor seizes up within the hub, drive the disc rotor out by installing an 8-mm bolt in holes (B) on rotor.

6) Clean mud and foreign particles from the caliper body assembly and support.

17 INCH TYPE
1) Set the vehicle on a lift.
2) Loosen the wheel nut.
3) Lift-up the vehicle, and then remove the front wheel.





4) Remove the caliper body and tie bar from housing, and suspend the caliper body from strut using a wire.





5) Remove the disc rotor from hub.

NOTE: If the disc rotor seizes up within the hub, drive the disc rotor out by installing an 8-mm bolt in holes B on rotor.

6) Clean mud and foreign particles from the caliper body assembly and support.

INSTALLATION
1) Install the disc rotor.
2) Install the caliper body and support to housing.
Tightening torque:
Except 17 inch type: 80 Nm (8.2 kgf-m, 59 ft. lbs.)
17 inch type: 155 Nm (15.8 kgf-m, 114.3 ft. lbs.)
3) Install the wheel.

INSPECTION
1) Check bearing axial end play and hub runout before disc rotor runout limit inspection.





3) Set a dial gauge 10 mm (0.39 inch) inward of rotor outer perimeter. Turn the disc rotor to check runout. If the disc rotor runout exceeds the service limit, resurface the disc rotor. After resurfacing, check disc rotor thickness as in step 4.
Disc rotor runout limit: 0.075 mm (0.0030 inch)





4) Set a micrometer 10 mm (0.39 inch) inward of the rotor outer perimeter, and then measure the disc rotor thickness. If the thickness of disc rotor exceeds the service limit, replace with a new disc rotor.
