Re: WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY! by jontera on Wed Jun 23, 2010 1:31 pm
discovered that my rear offside brake/hub is getting slightly hot...well very hot, too hot to touch to be honest.

job for tomorrow, as I have to watch a bunch of overpaid girl guides play a team from some country that i can't even find on a map. and then I might have to get drunk to ease the pain and all the "funnies" from north of the border..

back to brakes....can't be the hand brake, as I done that a little while back (post lift) and they wouldn't even hold the car that well anyway (just enough to pass the MOT) so I'm suspecting the caliper is sticking (wheel is getting very dirty with brake dust, otherside clean as a whistle)...failing that i'm going down the route of warped disc. Mind you the tyre was a little low (12psi :shock: ) but that shouldn't account for all the brake dust should it?

Cleared out the drain tubes from the sunroof. Found both sides full of crud. Fixed the sunroof latch so it now sits flusher. Still have a dodgy passenger electric window though no matter what I do.
