ugh. $202 OEM. Still life left on the pads, but definitely uneven wear. Thanks for the input.

In the process of putting new brake pads on my 6th gen. I notice the piston side of the rear brake rotor is smooth as glass. The other side of the rotor has ridges/grooves. Anything I need to worry about? If so, what could be the cause and what is the remedy?

Opening this up for another question. At the start of this thread, there is mention of a "key" above and below the 7th photo. I know there are two bolts on either side of the CCT, and there appears to be a bolt at the center of the CCT that is also removed. Are the pliers being used to grasp the key while the CCT is pulled from the case to prevent the shaft of the CCT from extending ? If so, do you apply a pulling force to the pliers, or do you use the pliers to keep the key in place while you remove the CCT?
