FUCT!... lol. Well I get home from work and check my back rim and it has like some brake dust or something on my rims and there are none on the other rims. I touched the left rear rim also and it's a lot hotter than the others. I even sprayed water on it and it steams the others don't. So the left rear is hotter and has dust on the rim... could this be a bad caliper? I had new rotors and rear brakes done in the summer but nothing to do with the calipers.

Did some research and yes it appears to be the caliper.

Glad you got it figured out.

Now if you could delete that picture out of your signature, we'd be golden.

Ya it's better to research on your own sometimes, and thanks.

Just wanted to post for the do it yourself guys. This place Auto parts warehouse sells cheap parts and you get paid back a core deposit. For instance I got my left caliper for my car for 119$ but get back 68$ if I mail back to them the core part. So I spent a total of 150$ for install and part for left caliper and that fixed the problem finally. The only thing the old part has to be repairable to get the core refund. Woot. Stay car crazy my friends.
