    Be prepared to buy both pads, rotors and calipers..

    If your wheel is heating up, that rotor is toast.. Most shops will not replace just one.. And if its stuc that bad, you may not be able to reset the caliper.. Plus the other caliper has been working harder now

    agreed. but check slider pins - that might be a problem. if it is vibration when you brake - rotor is warped for sure.
