time to do the hoses and a fluid flush. You may also have an issue with the ABS valves too. Its also possible the caliper is faulty - was it new or rebuilt? hoses shouldn't be a problem as they just unscrew from the hard lines - but make sure you have a proper set of tools and spray the end to the hard line with PB Blaster a few days before the job. Have you also inspected the emergency brake shoes?
