My 88 740 wagon has had new rotors and calipers all around for about a year. Soon after replacement, the passenger front caliper began dragging, so I replaced it with another new one and put in new front rubber brake hoses on both sides as well.

Now the passenger front caliper is intermittently dragging again, at times hot enough for brake fade and some pulling to the right. Then it goes away.

I'm wondering if I have a bad master cylinder or something? Any speculation would be welcome.
