Car brake drum overheating, the main reasons are:
1. The clearance between the left and right brake drums and the brake pads is inconsistent;
2. The left and right tire pressures are inconsistent;
3. The left and right brake pipelines are blocked, resulting in different hydraulic pressure or air pressure on both sides;
4. Brake shoe return spring is broken or too soft;
5. Sub-cylinder piston Mika, slow return;
6. (Oil brake) slow return of brake fluid;
7. (Air brake) brake camshaft does not return;
8. Corrosion of the support pin;

11. Insufficient or excessive gear oil, gear oil viscosity is too small.
[Warm Tip] Please try to drive in a place with good road conditions, avoid sudden braking and frequent braking, add the specified type of gear oil, and pay attention to the filling amount. The bearing clearance needs to be adjusted at the service station.
