sweetcal66 Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Hi all new problem, just fitted the supra with drilled grooved brakes and yellow stuff pads, but the drivers rear is heating off just a drive 4 mile normal drive. It is heating the wheel up so I can barley touch it. I have checked the handbrake and that isnt touching, and the piston seems to be releasing, but will check this again. Anybody know of what this could be as it wasnt happening with the standered brakes?? All help needed Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Have you checked that the pads are properly fitted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Turism0 Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 sounds like sticky slider to me mate, I had the exact same thing on my old car which uses near enough the same brake setup (presuming your supra is a import), I would take the wheel off and check the slider on the caliper carrier to make sure it moves freely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan_Turism0 Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Cool mate will check it yeah its an import by the way No probs, sticky slider would be where my money is in this case. The rubber boot that goes around the slider had split on mine causing water to get in and the all the grease to be washed out thus causing the slider to rust and seize on, good news it's not a expensive repair about £30 iirc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L18msy Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Same happened to me, ended up refurbing the calipers new seals etc. Not an expensive fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
