Well, this is the first "real" problem affecting driving the car, since it was built, in 2008. 103k miles and 12 years. Pretty good.
Noticed a burning smell last night after pulling into garage. RF wheel was hot to touch.
I suspect it is the caliper. (So much for trying to sell the car, looks like up she goes on jack stands for awhile)
Looking at caliper options, I am seeing Callahan reman, Raybestos reman, Centric reman, and actually found a few big brake kits with 6 pot calipers, albeit expensive.
Gotta pull the wheel and examine the caliper/rotor and confirm its the caliper before ordering. Could be the hub/bearing but unlikely as it likely would have been making a horrible noise if it was failing.
Can anyone recommend which front calipers to buy/feedback on which ones anyone has bought?
Thanks in advance
