Bad front brakes
#3
Id say warped discs. and because they are warped they will be pushing the pads open a little on every rotation (meaning you get more pedal travel when you push on the brakes and that would also explain them getting hot because the warped part of the discs will be thudding against the pad every rotation instead of just brushing next to it...
