01 A4 2.8 Brake Pad Thickness?
I'm trying to gage how long to wait to change my brake pads. Does anyone know the OEM BOL thickness of the front and rear pads on a 2001 A4 2.8 QMS?
At my 30K service, they measured Front 50% / Rear 45%.
At 50K service, Front 7 mm / Rear 4 mm.
I know I'm getting close, but I can't figure a use rate without knowing the original mm's. Trying to figure out if I can wait until the 60K service (doubt it).

FYI
Found the info. OEM thickness is 12 mm. So, for my driving habits, I use ~ 1.02 mm / 10 kmiles on the front and ~ 1.6327 mm every 10 kmiles on the rear.
At the 60K service, I should have ~ 5.98 mm Front and 2.3673 mm Rear; so, I should go ahead and replace both sets (at least the rears) at the 60K service
