Hey all -
I was out and about last night when the tire pressure alarm went off in my 2006GP. I got out of the car and walked around the vehicle - everything looked okay. I was only a few blocks from my parent's place at the time, so went there to use a pressure gauge.
All the tire pressure checked okay although I noticed that the wheel/rotor/hub on my rear driver's side wheel was very hot. The only thing I can figure is that the brake on that wheel is rubbing and warming it up.
I was really hoping that it was just a fluke - but after a short drive to work this morning, the problem had reoccurred.
A couple of weeks ago I did get my brakes flushed - before pulling off the wheel to check out the pad, I though there might be a correlation between the service and the problem I've encountered... and that it would be worth my time to have the same shop take a look at it (assuming they overlooked something when it was in).
Any thoughts or advice on this?
Thanks.
