i changed the front brake pads on my 200 tdi just over 2 weeks ( and 500 miles ) ago and ever since the drivers side disc gets so hot under even gentle braking it turns blue and smoke comes from the pads .it got so bad today that my brakes faded like hell and i had to throw water ofover them cos they were smoking so much
iv lifted the wheel off the floor and the brakes are not binding in fact when i drive up hill and let gravity stop me the front discs are stone cold . . i know they were cheap pads but its only the drivers side that does it and it dont even pull to any side under braking .
i aint had chance to get the wheel off yet cos of this ****ty weather but can anyone point me in the right direction ? thanks
