Using my thumb as caliper relative to the ring I suspect 1mm off possibly 1.5mm. But they are going with OEM philosophy which is to replace both at the same time.

Thank you. I think you are right. Now my problem is that shudder. I need to take it to a proper mechanic instead of a dealer that wants to replace everything.
