Brake caliper temperature possible issue

[Dario]

Its going to VW in 2 weeks, they will change what is needed

So changed the ABS pump, the master brake cilinder. all braking force in 5-6% diffrence . but still the front right caliper is getting more hotter. Dont know what to look else

Are the discs MK7 CCS 340mm floating discs?

So the internal vanes of the discs should be rotating the correct way...& hopefully they have not used one "blank" for both sides...

Thats probably your best bet. Idk if they're anything like ttrs rotors but 1 rotor is always hotter than the other because the vanes are exactly the same right to left so 1 of them is not cooling as designed because of the rotation being wrong

noup. stotech has L/R discs

looking to install back the OEMs and compare braking force/heat and see what the hell is up to

Could try disabling xds fully and see if there is still an imbalance, though I doubt it would make a massive difference unless something is off with it.

Is this even abnormal? Perhaps there is a slight difference in brake torque due to lines, or intended engineering design?

I noticed my right front wears a bit faster than my left front.

I'll see if I can find my temp gun and do a similar test.
