Why is one front wheel brake hot while the other is not?
1 Answers
The reasons for one front wheel brake being hot while the other is not are as follows: 1. The performance of the brake caliper has changed, or the brake pads are installed incorrectly. 2. You can also check the brake calipers to see if the oil pressure is the same on both sides. Below is some information about brakes: 1. Currently, there are disc brakes and drum brakes, with many older cars featuring front disc and rear drum brakes. 2. Many modern cars now have disc brakes on both front and rear wheels because disc brakes dissipate heat better than drum brakes, reducing the likelihood of heat fade during high-speed braking, thus providing better high-speed braking performance. 3. However, during low-speed cold braking, the braking effect is not as good as that of drum brakes.
