Left front tire temp rise after lowering

guess2098 · 10-22-2017, 12:01 PM

After lowering with moton, the front left tire reads higher than other 3.
I did alignment 2 time. Reset temps. No crazy drive. Car pulls slightly right just like other m3/4.

. Anyone has similar issues?

Are your cold pressures well adjusted? What lowering springs did you use? If you have a HAS, did you get the car corner balanced?

Mine does that but I assumed it was from the secondary engine coolant radiator on the drivers side.

Is it always the left side. Mine shows higher temps depending on where the car is parked, and what angle the sun is beaming at.

I also check my x5m, the left front is higher in most the case.

When I turn off engine, I do feel left front blow out high air compares to right front. Both M4 and X5M

Yes my front left is always at higher temp than the other don't know why

That's unusual, because my 2015 M3 is very stable left-right and front-rear. I can correlate a couple degree temperature rise to one tire being 1 psi lower than the rest, but otherwise they're always within 3 degrees of each other. Such a large disparity suggests to me that the alignment may be off and the warmer tire is scrubbing the road compared to the rest.
