Hi guys, today I went to check the tyre pressures and inadvertently touched the rear hub, and was it hot, as was the disc and the callipers. I went and checked the drivers side and it was all cool.
So do i have a failing wheel bearing, a faulty EPB that needs adjusting or dragging pads caused by a sticky calliper.
This calliper was changed at a servive last year, as it wore a set of brakes pads out in 3 months,
Any help or guidance is welcome before i strip it down, next week at the earlist now though 07,TDV8,Black, Black Heated leather all round, Rear Entertainment with Headpones & Remote, TV, DVD, Pure Dab Digital Radio, Sidesteps, Adaptive Headlights, sunroof, now working fuel burning heater )))

I would have expected the brakes / disc's etc to get hot in use as it's a friction based system, if a wheel bearing was causing it i would think you would be able to hear it. As you say, best plan is to get the wheels off the ground and i'm sure it will not take long to find out if one side is not working as it should 2010 RRS, TDV8
