Front brakes have been getting worse quite rapidly recently, and I pulled over on the way back from fcs to have a look.
The drivers side brake was incredibly hot, so I am assuming the pad(s) are constantly applying to much pressure and heating the discs?
The discs are also worn very unevenly, so I assume the pads aswel. Having only looked though the wheels I couldn't see the back of the discs, but the front of the drivers side has worn on the outer, and the passengers on the inner, so I am assuming this is what makes the steering wheel shake under braking.
Don't really want to just replace discs and pads because it will likely happen again in a few thousand miles! Any ideas what the problem could be?
