Left brake would hang up and get hot. I replaced the caliber and still does the same. These are disk brakes and the right side works fine.

They will break loose inside and create a small check valve where fluid will go one way and not return too release the pressure. Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds Loren Champlain Sr Veteran / Moderator Dec 10, 2008, 5:47 PM Post #3 of 4 (4138 views) Re: front brake hangs up Sign In In addition to way2olds' advise, don't overlook the right caliper, also. Many times I've found that the opposite side may not be working properly, causing the other one to do all the 'work', causing it to overheat. Calipers should always be replaced in pairs on disc brakes.
