Very hot front nearside brake
After driving down a few steep hills on parking i could smell my brakes, my front nearside brakes were so hot i could hardly touch the wheel nuts while the front drivers side was just hot. Drove home on mainly level roads and the front wheels were both the same temperature when i arrived so i think this rules out binding brakes. Any ideas why one wheel/brakes were a lot hotter than the other side2005 HSE TDV6 in Bonatti Grey

Poss seized on front left brake caliper. Try a few miles of flat driving then compare sides CAREFULLY!! I've had 3 out of 4 seize on, one so bad the disc was glowing.
