Hi I have a 95 del sol vtec with 136k on it I just changed to synthetic oil (royal purple) yesterday and today I finally drove the car to work (first long trip) and i noticed there is a burning smell coming from the front right wheel (pass side) and I saw smoke coming from there.... My breaks seem fine I dont know if this is related or not any suggestions ?

Also the car runs fine and smooth (better than before)

 

Anyone ?

 

one of my cousins was smoking too on the right wheel too... we all thought it was to motor but seems not...it was the brake when we found out...but this was because he keep punching his brake

 

check your wheel bearings, my mom (I know) had a wheel fire in her volvo 240 turbo due to the bearings not being properly lubed
