Brake job

This doesn't answer your questions but I am curious ....

Has your brake warning light on your dash ever come on? I'm wondering how much faith to place in that.

Mine came on when I was at Road Atlanta braking from 120 MPH to around 60 at the end of the back straight, I knew there was plenty of front pad left as I visually inspected between sessions. My light came on because the sensor overheated and melted. Oddly later in the day it went out. Now I have removed all brake sensors and just visually inspect my brake pads since I am in there often enough to do so.

If you get them good and hot they can melt and give a false reading.

My brake sensor light did come on recently. I *think* it is the rear that caused it to light up. I just got the car recently.

It did come on once while sitting in my garage and the car was on then it went off. Then a few days later came back on once again sitting in the garage and has not gone off since.
