we think what has happend is the pad has warn out and shifted slightley, happend on our D2
unfortunatley there is no feasable way for me to get to him, it would take a while to get the caliper off of my bobtail and ther enot in great shape
and then its a bit of a treck

they need a bit burnt off them then. :lol:

I have had problems with my rover and glowing brake pads. Just keep going through lots of puddles to cool them down.

Hope you get home soon.

Knowing the luck I'm having today I'd break something trying to get mine off..... :doh: :doh:

If I lived nearer I'd pop down with a cup of coffee for him, just to cheer him up. Anyway I've already sent him a text and he hasn't replied yet... :'( :'(
