Need help..front Brake problem!
My Driver's side brake is hanging up(not releasing). I have flushed the system with new fluid, and bled the brakes. I thought it was the caliper, so I bought a new one...its still not releasing. The passenger brake caliper is.
Is this a sign of a bad Master Cylinder or could it be something else?

That's more than likely the problem, the inner liner of the hose breaks away and acts like a check valve....

I agree. Change the brake hoses.
