    front brakes hot

    Over what time duration? Or distance ? You could always jack one wheel up and turn it, and see how easily it rotates. Then press the pedal, or get someone to, then when the presures off try rotating it again and see if is any tighter. If is is then its binding.

    front brakes hot

    Any way to immobilise a 300tdi while moving?

    Ha ha ha very true lol. I think it is a cool addition to a car or even a house. Just think, you could rig your lights to come on and of as you like, using your phone, or computer. I am going to rig mine to work of my tablet, using voice control. :)
