You may need to do an automated ABS bleed. You'll need a tech2 to do this. You'll have to take it to a shop or a dealership.

It is not good if a persons newly changed brake pads are grinding. To stop this, a person needs to change the brake caliper pressure.
Probably has a sticky brake caliper or sticky brake caliper sliders. Who ever replaced the brake pads should have seen that.

It looks like a hydraulic clamp. When hydraulic pressure is applied with the brake pedal, the caliper clamps the disc brake pads to the disc brake rotor to stop rotation.
Assuming this is a 4+4 vehicle, the caliper bolts on to the caliper bracket. The caliper bracket bolts on to the steering knuckle.
take the tire off and then remove the brake caliper remove the brake pads take a c clamp and compress the brake piston replace the pads then put the caliper back on tighten the caliper bolts put the tire back on then turn car on and push on the brakes a couple of times
No but, the next time that brake seems stuck open the bleeder on that stuck caliper and see if the caliper releases the pressure. If so you may have a bad brake hose or a pinched brake line that holds pressure.
The brake caliper nut in a vehicle's braking system is used to secure the caliper in place, ensuring that it stays in the correct position to apply pressure on the brake pads when the brakes are engaged.
A c-clamp will work just fine. If it takes a lot of pressure to retract the piston the caliper may need replacement or rebuilding.
The brake caliper may not retract properly due to issues such as a stuck piston, worn out seals, or debris buildup. These issues can prevent the caliper from releasing pressure on the brake pads, leading to brake drag and reduced braking performance.
