I had an issue with a sized caliper on the rear of my tourer, so I ended up replacing both rear calipers and all the pads.

Now the rear brakes get really hot when the car is driven. When it is stopped the brakes are free and not binding, but drive it for 20 minutes or so and the wheel is too hot to touch and you can smell the brakes. But they are still free and you can push the car back and forth quite easily.

Any ideas? As I'm fresh outta them!
 
people have had issues with the rear hoses on these collapsing internally and holding pressure in the caliper. ive got a couple to go on mine as i think i have the same issue
