Where in McKinney, btw?

Ah, you're the one who said I looked scary? Until I see you at a meet, I probably will continue to forget that I ever talked to you (I already forgot the username of the other blue Z guy who saw me a few times). Yeah, I was avoiding traffic on 75 after dropping my gf off, so I was on Eldorado turning onto Ridge.



BTW, I saw my first 370Z on the road today in McKinney.

That definitely wasn't me. I was on Eldorado and Ridge, you saw him on Eldorado and Alma. I also don't smoke cigars (well, rarely), don't have any sort of kit, and have aftermarket rims. I also have a vinyl sticker in my quarter panel window that says "My350Z.com" with the Godfather logo and my username on it.

Good morning!

I have a problem and I was wondering if y'all might be able to help me.

I notice a noise coming from the back of my car when I was driving up to Denton from Richardson.

I noticed the noised after I arrived in Denton and picked up my girlfriend, I tried driving around a parking lot to see what is making that noise and looked underneath the car and check the brakes. They were fine. I drove around again and the noise was gone so I didn't pay much attention to it.

While driving to work today, when I was pulling up to a parking spot, I noticed the noise again but this time it was right after I applied the brakes. I touch the rotors and they were hot even though I didn't use the brakes much. I guess my brakes are dragging/sticking.

I haven't started diagnosing the problem yet because I am at work now, I plan on checking my fluid level during my lunch break. If that checks out fine what step should my next step be? Bleed my brakes? If so, what's a good brake bleeding kit I can buy?

My rear brake sticking or dragging.

It gives a low rumble noise like I am dragging something behind/under my car.
