Here are some photos of the brake problem. Both photos were taken after the car had been doing a few hours of city driving with frequent stops and starts. The first photo is a close up of the left rear disk and caliber. You will note that the disk surface is bright and shiny. The second photo is a close up of the right rear disk and caliper. You can see that the bottom portion of the disk is shiny and clean but the upper portion has big rust streaks. Its almost like the pad is not properly engaging the top portion of the disk. I'm wondering if the cylinder is seized, etc? If you look at the photos at the beginning of this thread, it looks like I have the same problem.

Any thoughts?
