Today when i got to work i just happened to look at my back left wheel

when i touched it it was crankin' hot compared to the rest of them

Just wondering what this could be?

theres no burning metal smell ,the park brake was definately off while driving

and no noticeable pull to the left

wheel bearing mabye?

Cant get it looked at until tuesday, should i not drive it until then?

it could be different tyre pressures the same thing happens on trucks with the 2 wheels on each axle if one is a bit flat the other one is going to do all the work and get hot

    • Thanks Mate, I did know you could do that but i know there is a pump out there that you can bolt on and it all lines up. I was told about it and then forgot the model, I figure if i am pulling it apart i will just put a new one on 
    • You can also remove the veins from the HICAS portion of your existing pump. 
    • Trying to swap the rear subframe on my R34 and can't remove the L-shaped stay brackets between the front subframe mounts and the sill/chassis. I'm in the UK so rust is a problem. I've used loads of WD40 and then Tunap 103 for days beforehand. I backed off the bolts forward a bit, backward a bit repeatedly for ages to try and avoid snapping. They have all moved a few full turns. The one I've spent most time on has come loose and I can turn with fingers, and it will pull down and push up 2-3mm. But it won't come out. I can tighten it back up and loosen it off again repeatedly but it still won't come out. I assumed there's a captive nut inside but if that's broken loose then I can't understand why I can always tighten the bolt back up - I'd expect it to just spin both ways. Any ideas what's happening here? I can't visualise what's inside there to cause this.
