Smile What a relief!!

Well… last night I went to a property owner meeting. On my way out I notice a weird noise coming from the rear passenger wheel area. A sound like the brake caliper was stuck/rubbing with the disc or one of the CVJ had gone bad… all sorts of weird thoughts crossed my mind! I was planning on taking a 3-4 hour trip tomorrow…

When I got home I just went to sleep and pretty much was convinced that my car was toast and I would, once again, have to take out a fifth loan on my house to get it fix.

After close inspection in the passenger area… the culprit? A freaking leaf that was stuck between the brake caliper and the rotor…

All is good!

The difference between you and I is that at midnight, I would have been taking my car apart to find the problem, because, I know I would not have been able to sleep on it!
