I have replaced both caliper and hoses on the front of my car. The driver side is doing good, but the passeneger side is still getting hot. It's not smoking like it was with the old caliper on, but it still isn't as free as the driver side wheel. It doesn't smoke but is hotter than the other one? What could this be? The hoses are new and calipers are remans.

Have you checked the hard brake lines for kinks/damage? One of them could have been crimped by something hitting it and is preventing the fluid from flowing back/forth. There could also be dirt/gunk in the line that is restricting flow. A fluid flush might help if it hasn’t been done in a while. Good luck...

I've checked all the lines. The rubber hoses on the front are brand new and the hard lines are in good shape. The caliper I put on was leaking around the bleeder, I guess I got a bad reman? So I took it back and got another one. We'll see if this works.
