NO ! Never do that - Do all 4 Pads (both sides of the car at once) WHy? If 
one is coming apart, the others are not far behind !!  Pads are cheap & 
available. (Same used on many Jaguars) another reason is wear... it is very 
possible that your car will pull to one side or the other if you just do 1, 
or even one side.

NO ! again ! Don't scare us like that. You'll never get it back to factory 
specs. But hey... it's your car, your insurance bill, and your head through 
the windshield if something goes wrong. 

Safety First !!!! Remember - even a non- running car needs brakes !!
