I replaced my rt rear caliper because it was sticking. Eating brake pads. Now the new one is doing the same thing after about thousand miles I jacked up wheel and it was hard to turn. I had to replace the pads.i put new pads and compressing the caliper was very hard. I took car around block and it was smelling hot. I jacked up car and wheel would not turn I hit caliper with hammer and was able to turn wheel. I removed brake and pressed on brake paddle to push piston out. Then I used c clamp to compress piston and it moved easier then before. I put tire on and pressed brake peddle and tire moved freely. Took car to work and it smells hot and you can feel heat. What you think bad caliper or possible hose issue.
