By seized I mean that it would not release causing the rotor to become ungodly hot. Smoking hot actually.
Yeah, the car has ABS on all four wheels,.
After the caliper on the front left was replaced we bled the system. That's when my brother heard a noise on the right side, so I called in my friend. He realized it was the caliper actually seizing (not releasing), and in this car it's on the same circuit as the front left! We bled the system entirely again just to make sure it was done right the first time - no such luck.
We (he with me watching curiously) replaced the front CV joints and we'll have the master cylinder back in completely tonight (too damn hot in Texas to do this during the afternoon). I sure as hell hope this solves the problem, but I'm still curious as to what happened.
After the car would sit for a bit the calipers would release, and after driving around more they would seize again! But after the front left caliper was replaced, it changed to the back right! This is what I find crazy, and then after sitting it will unseize, only to seize again if driven.
Brake fluid was new and purchased from a major chain, it had been drained completely and bled twice, so I wouldn't think so, but I'm no mechanic.
