Pretty much, Even with my big 2 piston calipers I never have to add brake fluid throughout the life of the pads. But only the fronts wearing down isn't really enough to turn on the light.

I haven't checked my factory service manual to see if it gives a different number.

Factory specs for lug nut torque on most GM cars is 100 FT-LB for 12mm and 140 FT-LB for 14mm.
