WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Kia K900. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Place a dial gauge about 5mm (0.2 in.) from the outer circumference of the brake disc, and measure the runout of the disc.

  2. If the runout of the brake disc exceeds the limit specification, reinstall the disc after turning the disc 72° clockwise. Recheck the runout. If the runout exceeds the specification, try turning the disc by 72° and recheck the runout until a full revolution (360°, 4 steps).
  3. If the runout cannot be corrected by turning the disc, replace the brake disc.
  4. When installing brake disc, runout peak point markings (A) on disc and hub must be as close as possible (within 72° range).
