Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Suggestion
Once the sensor goes off you really need to to change the pads before they wear through and damage the rotors.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Whats the approx mileage possible before you get damage once your brake pad wear indicator comes on in a 996. I cannot get new ones fitted this side of Christmas and the light came on at the weekend ? Cheers Cammy

POST 2Original post

Mileage will vary by how you drive and brake. Once the sensor goes off you really need to to change the pads before they wear through and damage the rotors. Below 2 mm thickness is considered a hazard not only for damage but safety (overheating). Don't forget to replace the sensors and the vibrations dampers when you change pads.
