Problem started when my RIGHT REAR brakes started to grind into the rotor. Figured it was a seized caliper so I went ahead and ordered a REMAN'd caliper and also bought Hawk Rear Pads and Brembo OEM Rotors.

Today I replaced the caliper, pads, rotors, bled the lines and all the fun stuff....and I'm still having the same problem where the caliper won't release = the rotor eating away at the pads from the presistant pressure.

Also, the E-Brake cable has been diconnected from both the handle and caliper.

The LEFT REAR has play in which you can turn the wheel back and fourth without any effort.The RIGHT REAR has no such play and needs great effort to budge it.

My buddy told me to replace the RR brake line; cause he thinks that the check valve in the brake line isn't releasing pressure from the caliper...???...need clarification before I make an order for a set.

Any other suggestions or tips?

Thanks.-Ro

Did you really need to make three posts?

Already responded in one of the other three threads.
