Why does my passenger side front brake dust more?
i've noticed that my only brake that squeeks are the passenger front wheel. More dust, more heat, and squeeks.
is this normal?
i've also noticed that the driver side rear is warmer thent he passenger.
any input?

Maybe the road you travel has a few sharp left turns that you brake on more than any right turns? Causing your right brakes to have to work harder. Dunno, just a thought?

Does the car pull to that side at all? If so you could have a stuck caliper(not retracting when you let off the brake). I don't know the solution possibly caliper rebuild...but hopefully its just because of your left turns. Try going around the block the other way...lol...j/k

All passenger front brakes dust more. For all cars. I know this because I used to detail cars for 5 years. It must be a product of forces because you're sitting on the driver side?? It's just the way it is.
