When do you need to change front brake pads and turn rotors how many millimeters do they start out at If there are 3mm left and do they need to be replaced?

The pads need to be changed when they wear out. That is determined by how you drive. Can be as little as 20,000 miles or as high as 60,000 miles. Once you hear the warning signal, (Squeal) that the pads need replacing, if you immediately replace them you can easily have the rotors trued and not have to replace them. If you ignore this warning, you may end up replacing the rotors. Any good machine shop will tell you if they are too thin to turn.
