How Hot Should They Be?

Hello,

2000 D2, 63K, No Mods, local garage replaced the front brakes and rotors last week and I noticed that on several occassions the pass. side wheel/brake/rotor was radiating a lot more heat than the drivers side. I became aware of it from a slight burning smell when it was hot. Obviously, the only way for this to happen is if the pad is dragging a bit on the rotor. Seems to do it intermittently. The shop could not find any problems (sticky caliper).

Has anyone had a similiar experience? Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Jeff
