  • If you want the brakes to last then try this:-   Take them apart once a year ( in the autumn is best ) and thoroughly clean and re grease them. I found that it was worth doing this even

I upgraded mine to Brembo OE discs and pads. The factory discs are awful, plus I guess the rears get used more than you think by other systems such as Lane guidance / esp / parking brake etc

You may find your question in the workshop manuals, that you can download from cardiagn.com. There's a whole workshop manual for brakes. ;) 

Note, in this wokshop manual dedicated to brakes (unless this is in the maintenance chapter, I have a slight doubt), you will also find the spec for discs and pads minimum thickness. Very useful for a quick check! ;)

@Bap33 Thanks for the advice. I've got one disk that's heavily rusted just on the outside and has worn the corresponding pad right down so will have to replace the lot unfortunately.

@D402 Good tips have to be shared ;) !
