Hot wheel on van

Postby oma » Sat Mar 14, 2015 3:37 pm

First & foremost I want to state that we take our van to a very reputable repair place.
Secondly only replies from those who know what they are talking about or have had the same problem

The 2 wheels are on the right side of the van, front one always OK and this was this morning after only about 4ks travel.
Bruce has fiddled with the brake controller at various times & situations.
We have had it back 3 times, at their cost, but keep telling us that there is not a problem. I do not know a lot but that is hot! When the van was new the backing plate had been welded on crooked & it was repaired under warranty back in 2008. Bearings etc etc had been done by our man last year. Have had this problem since replacing axles on trip last year at Wentworth.

Hi Kay & Bruce,
Did you read that article on the caravanners forum about faulty magnets?
Apparently at times they remain 'slightly' magnetized and won't allow the linings to fully return.

............. or are you referring to tyres rather than hubs?

Was there supposed to be a couple of pics with your post?

Bruce has seen Tomcam's post & yes there should have been a couple of photos just showing the temp on the gauge.
Thanks for replies & have shown Bruce.
