My front pad on the passenger side keeps sticking to the rotor and burning.I replaced the caliper, the rotor and the brake pad and nothing helps. It seems to stick more when the weather is hot.I even tried bleeding the lines but it still sticks and burns. Could this be caused by something else?Appreciate your expert opinion. Thank you.

Thinkl problem is with flex brake line checking pressure to caliper. Operate brake several times then open bleede if pressure present replace hose.

I'm not sure what you mean. Is it the short line running from the caliper, or the line running all the way to the master cylinder?The short line is rubber and attaches directly to the caliper.
