Pull the front calipers off and check the slide pins, I bet one or more is sticking. I just spent months chasing this on my car. If they're sticking, the inner pad will be a lot more worn than the outer pad.

I Think you solved my problem. Left front seems to be stuck Tried to free it up. flushed then fluid and refilled bled off got fluid to three wheels cannot get fluid to left front. Also used Dot 3 before I realized it needs Dot4. does this make a difference and do I need to replace the caliper. Thanks for your help
