Hey there,
today after let's say 2-3 hours of driving in a city (so many stop'n'go's), my rear brakes started to smell like on fire, and whole rim (stock 16's) was hot as hell, also there was some smoke floating around. What could be the problem?

Thanks in advance!

 

emergency brake on ??????

 

Nope.

 

GEZZZZ tom! That had to be quite a few years ago! My first car was a '62 Buick Le Sabre and even THAT didn't have a manual choke!

 

Thank You for such quick response! Seems like brakes are dragging somehow, i will get it checked out on monday.

 

I had a similar experience years ago driving my father-in -law's Dodge truck. City stop and go driving that it wasn't used to. One of the calipers siezed up. Just enough to cause a bit of friction and it heated up quickly.

 

Keep me posted on your progress regarding the fix. If you have any questions in the meantime, please feel free to contact me. Thank you.
