Does anyone know thicjk the front and rear brake pads are leaving the factory?

I am interested in finding out how mine are wearing. My "B1" service report shows that after 11,973 miles / 18,979 km, front thickness is 9.5mm, rear thickness is 6 mm.

 

I have doubts about how accurate those measurements are. At one service, I was told I had so many mm left, then at the next service 10k miles later, I somehow had MORE mm than the last time. Made no sense to me

 

Sounds to me like your pads hit a growth spurt. Makes sense...

 

^ lol

 

I just look at the pads thru the wheels. When they get thin and I have other maintanence to do, they get changed!
