disc brake overheating71chevyvan 03-09-2009, 11:24 AM i have a 2001 accent with 60k miles. this weekend for the second time since it was new i replaced my front pads with new hyundai parts. problem is my left front brake assembly is overheating to the point you cannot even touch the tire rim. my right side is warm not hot. i suspect a siezing caliper piston. anyone have thoughts on this problem? barry . jsinton 03-11-2009, 08:00 AM It's almost certain the rotor is getting stuck. I'd replace it with a reman unit if I were you. They're pretty cheap, you just have to bleed the whole brake system to replace it, but that's a good thing to do. jsinton 03-11-2009, 08:01 AM Sorry, caliper getting seized. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
