Anyone know the thickness of the standard FD brake pads please

I just looked up for my 2008. Two different suppliers, one is 16,8mm the other 17,5mm  for the front pads.

Thanks Asterix,so I have at least another five years and another 130,000 K's to drive before I have to change bruces pads

According to the manual, standard pad thickness is 11 mm and the service limit is 2 mm.

Asterix was that pads or rotors? 17mm is massive pad thickness.

Phil is on the money. But shouldnt be shocked at 2mm, even 1mm is still driveable. Just dont let them get to 0mm lol

I remember my Commodore brake pads going to metal on metal and me driving for a couple of weeks before pad replacement. I doubled my fuel economy during that time. Ah thoze were the daze!

Pads, but including the metal backplate. 

He didn't ask how much of it he could wear up, just the thickness...
