You have a TON of rotor left.

Look up: SI B 34 05 08

The Minimum Thickness for general inspection (Motor Vehicle Inspection) is defined as follows:

SI B 34 05 08

Brakes

August 2008
Technical Service
Page 1 of 2

Nominal size thickness minus 2.4 mm (not applicable to perforated brake discs and M vehicles)

M vehicles and perforated (cross-drilled) brake discs: Nominal size thickness minus 1.6 mm

Note: The nominal size thickness refers to the width of a new rotor.

Always refer to the Repair Manual for model-specific information.
AKA - You basically have worn 16.6% of your rotor....

Check your minimum thickness and starting thickness of the rotor (typically by realoem or similar)...but just FYI


No reason to throw away money.
