    Default smoking Wheel Arch

    Hi guys,

    I recently got home to find smoke pouring from front left wheel arch. The wheel was hot enough to fry an egg. when it cooled down i took the wheel off and saw this;



    I don't know a great deal about what I'm looking at, but the shaft on the left looks a little out of whack.

    Can someone shed some light? Thanks

    ps sorry about the big pic, could figure out a quick way to reduce it...

    Upon a second look, I realised the disc pads seems to have locked on the disc, i cant turn the wheel freely. Assuming this is the only issue, what do i do first?

    Dismantle calliper and clean out, lube slide pins, new disc and pads if they are ruined.
