    Th Expert says it’s the brakes. That’s too much. He had to back off and adjust brakes when doing hubs. He’s as bad of a Liar as Mechanic. They’re obviously too tight. Probably also were low on oil. Anytime oils added, it takes time to flow and level out for an accurate level reading. Always re check oil level often after adding any. Make it part of your pre trip. Best reading is after it’s been sitting parked for a while anyways. I wouldn’t let him
    do any more work on it. They need someone who knows what they’re doing.
