Theory about my Amigos

Theory about my Amigos
I get the Amigos intermittently, and I have a theory about it that involves my brake and rotor change a few months ago. So someone tell me if this is a possibility:
When I did my front rotor and brake change; is it possible that I didn't get the rotors on/in "tight" enough and that is causing my braking system to heat up which is screwing with my sensors? The reason I ask is because usually I only get the amigos after a long drive or a lot of driving during a day.....but I guess that could also be coincidence.... what'd you guys think?

No. The screw holding the rotor on is just a set screw. It makes it easier to put the brakes and wheel on, and guarantees alignment when that is happening. The clamping force of a rotor is from the wheel/lug nuts holding it on.

Read your code and settle your mind. If it comes up as Shuttle Valve you will know your wheel is not going to fall off, it will likely get worse but you can fix it anytime. If it comes up as Speed Sensor it could be an indicator of a bad wheel bearing, which will get worse and leave you stranded.
