About a week ago I notice the drivers side rear brake was sticking. I took the wheel off and saw that the brakes and rotor were wore pretty bad. So started to replace them and look at the brake caibur and noticed it was pretty bad looking. Figuring that might be the problem with it sticking I replaced all of the three components rotor pads and caliber. A week later its starting to stick again. When applying the brakes it feels like u have brakes but when spinning the wheel it never fully stops the wheel or retracts. When trying to bleed possible air fluid just dribbles out. Thanks in advance

Your question is confusing. Are you having a problem with the brakes being applied when they shouldn't be or not applying sufficiently.
