Hi guys,
About half a year ago I replaced a front brake pads. 3 of them were just fine, but right outer pad was worn to metal. It was stuck pressed against the brake disk and was dragging all the time.
So, after I replaced the pads, I made sure that the caliper moves freely and the pads can slide.
Lately I see the same problem happening again. MPG and acceleration is down , front right wheel is all dusty and gets very hot while driving.
Today, I took apart the brake and have found the same situation. The pad was stuck so badly, that I broke it trying to get out.
Help!!! What is my problem?
Yes, I will lubricate the sliding pin with a high-temperuture grease, and clean everything around. Am I missing anything?
