ok all here goes! I changed out both front rotors and put Ceramic pads up front. I did this because my drivers side pads were rubbing (hung up) and I thought that maybe it was because one of the guide pins weren't cleaned properly last time. So I drove home from friends garage about 20 miles and when I got home my drivers side rotor was so hot it was GLOWING RED!!!! Well I guess my original prob is still there and has nothing to do with the guide pins. I don't believe it is the caliper as I had no probs moving it with clamp when I put the new pads on. Where should I go from here and what are the possibilities. By the way it is a 94 AWD TSI Talon for those that don't want to look in my profile. All help and advise is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for all the quick replys!! By the way it is ONLY the Drivers side front that is rubbing or hung up.
 
yes there was. Don't remember for sure if it was the front side or rear side of the pads but there was definitely a huge dif in thickness on the pads
 
mzybe there is something wrong with your combination valve and it is letting excessive hydraulic pressure to that caliper?
