If the rotor is hotter then the other rear rotor, you have a stuck piston.

Take out the pads on the problem rotor and use channel pliers to try to push the piston back in. It takes about 30lbs of pressure to slowly squeeze the piston. If it wont move, you will need a new caliper.

BTW, the pins that hold the spring for the pads do get rusty but will not have any bearing on the noise pads make. They are a non moving part. New pins and a spring are very cheap to buy and replace.
The 10mm rotor holding pin gets rusty and also has no function except to hold the disk inplace. The lugnuts hold the rotor to the axle.

Please answer, we need to know if the advice is good or bad. The 164 has a new home, all I am left with are 2 turbos :)
