I just replaced the rear pads and rotors. But the rear drivers side is hot. I smelled the heat and the rim was hot. I jacked the rear end up so the tires were off the car. And I could spin both the tires. So my question is how do you break them in?

 

Just drive the car normally...the front brakes does most of your braking duties.

 

Ok I got the caliper to stop heating up as much. It was a seized up bolt on the caliper. But the passenger side is much more cool than the drivers side rotor. Is that normal for the rear drivers side to brake more?

 

its just on one side? is it excessive heat? too much heat in your opinion?

could have a sticky caliper.....imnto sure if it works the same way as teh fronts do but if its sticking it should pull to that side..

 

wellk since we are on brakes.....i get a click click click click click form my rear breaks only when im doing like 1 mph anybody know what that could be?.....

sorry for thread jacking but it in the same category and no need to make another post

 

The drivers rear is about as hot as both front brakes are. The passenger side is not that hot.

 

thats kinda odd........my first guess would be a sticking caliper.......u can rebuild them....they are not that hard
