AUT-105 Brakes, Chapter 46

Which of the following methods may be used to install new wheel studs?

• Draw in or pull in

• Draw out or slide in

• Draw out or push in

• Draw in or press in

To perform a thorough inspection of brake pads, you should do all of the following EXCEPT:

• Inspect the pads to see if they are wearing evenly.

• Inspect all pads, retaining hardware, and anti-noise shims.

• Measure the remaining brake pad thickness and compare to specifications.

• Measure the pad-to-caliper piston clearance.

A dial indicator may be used for measuring rotor:

• Thickness.

• Runout.

• Hot spots.

• Groove wear.

Wheel lug nuts should be properly torqued in the proper sequence to ensure that the:

• Rotors remain in balance.

• Rotors do not warp.

• Wheel studs can be easily removed.

• Wheels are properly aligned.

Technician A states that brake rotors can be refinished on or off the vehicle. Technician B states that brake drums can be refinished on or off the vehicle. Who is correct?

• Technician A

• Technician B

• Both Technician A and Technician B

• Neither Technician A nor Technician B

Technician A says that a micrometer is used to measure rotor thickness variation. Technician B says that a micrometer is used to measure rotor lateral runout. Who is correct?

• Technician A

• Technician B

• Both Technician A and Technician B

• Neither Technician A nor Technician B

All of the following can cause brake system dragging EXCEPT:

• Stuck caliper piston.

• Misadjusted master cylinder pushrod length.

• Restricted brake line or hose.

• Internal master cylinder leak.

Which tool is used to measure the thickness of a brake rotor?

• Vernier caliper

• Disc brake rotor micrometer

• Dial indicator

• Depth micrometer

Which tool is used to measure the lateral runout of a rotor?

• Vernier caliper

• Inside micrometer

• Dial indicator

• Depth micrometer

Technician A states to tighten the lug nuts substantially tighter than specifications to make sure that the wheels do not fall off. Technician B states that under tightening of the lug nuts can cause the wheel to come off and cause serious injury. Who is correct?

• Technician A

• Technician B

• Both Technician A and Technician B

• Neither Technician A nor Technician B
