The discs have worn evenly though and I don't having any braking...

    Valve clearances....

    I've read that people have them checked during regular services. But when I checked the manual it says they only need to be checked at 110k miles! I planned to get TGM to check them this week whilst I get an alignment done but I'm thinking I should just save my money. Its not like they are...
