Thanks for the replies! First the auto has 124k on it. It has had few miles over the past 3 years. Like about 2000. I just bought it. The heat from the front rims is to me extreme. Skin contact would burn you if touched for more than 5 seconds after only driving for 2-3 miles. I have not pulled the wheels yet but based on comments and reading I am guessing the calipers are sticking. I am also getting very intermittent "trac" illumination on my dash but only after driving for a while and not all the time. I am just feeling out this car at this point not using much. It's in mint condition most miles between Minnesota and Arizona, no rust, all documented service etc. I am a little spooked by the cost of repairs, but so far the car drives like a dream. What is the best way to check the calipers? Another question, how in the world do you access the tail lights to change a bulb??? I've got a brake light out and am baffled by how to get the lens out?
