so i changed my brakes the other day and heres what happened:

the rear passenger side- the caliper bolt didnt want to remove from bracket one side was able to but the otherside just kept turning and turning but i had enough room to pull out old pads and put new ones and bolt everyhting back up.
the driver side - went smooth no problems everything came out as it should new pads done.

now im getting a burning smell from rear driver side wheel, and when i release brake im getting like a slow locking release from brake until i hit the gas.

this happen to anyone before?



Anyone ever change their rear calipers what brand you used?

i shop local so im debating to purchase from advance auto parts or napa: here are my choices:




or if you recommend any other brand im all ears, i have stock setup nothing special just need new calipers becuase they are sticking:
 
I would bleed the problem caliper first to see if the problem goes away before replacing the caliper.
 
not always, but have experience the similar with other car. After I bleed the caliper the problem when away.
