My '87 245 had a hot front wheel when I got home from a 15 mile drive yesterday. I didn't have time to check it out until today and now the wheel spins normally.

Usually a stuck caliper stays stuck. I tried pressing the brake pedal once I had the wheel off, but the brakes released as normal, so I doubt that it is a swollen brake hose.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Greg
