I noticed this evening that my front tire close to the driver side is bringing smoke. Seem like it is around the brake disc area. The brake pad is barely 2 Weeks and I recently changed my master cylinder like 3 days.

Please I need serious help

Go change the brake piston. It's stiff and if you don't change it quickly,it will destroy the disc.

Pls be sure it's the correct master you bought.
My previous car (a nissan) had master problem. After the change, the car would drive normally then the brake fluid as well as the disc would get very hot. Car would not move at inch and break pedal would be sooo strong till i put off the car for 30mins +.

The mechanic found out he bought a wrong master. Everything became fine as soon as it was changed with the correct part.

So ensure you troubleshoot properly and avoid guess work. . .

I tried the early guys suggestion but the problem still persisted. I just met a brake specialist and he said it was the master that was the issue. Hopefully we will get a new master or find a way to fix the present one. The amount of fake product in the market is troubling

I guessed as much. Just ensure you limit driving it for now because the excessive heat could damage other components and could also result in fire (Allah ya sauke).

Good luck

Please are you saying the brake disc shouldn’t be hot at all even after driving for sometime?

No nah. It gets hot after prolonged driving. But should never get to that point where it is smoking or extremely hot.
