hello recently got myself a 2002 2l petrol limited PT cruiser everything great except the front righthand wheel is really hot to touch after distances of about 20 miles sometimes red hot accompanied by the smell of brake dust.

is this just a simple sticking caliper or could it be something else??

any help much appreciated

thanks

 

I had that problem on my Voyager van a couple of years ago. Turned out to be a bad brake hose. Replaced the caliper twice before I figured that out.
