By chance do you have an IR temp gun ? Even a cheap one from Harbor Freight would work . If possible find an open stretch of road that you can drive and coast on . After driving for a bit coast to a stop without touching the brakes . Set the parking brake and hit all four rotors with the IR gun . If you have a hanging caliper you should easily see a temp difference . When was the last brake fluid flush ? Any chance water in the system ? Brake fluid is hydro scopic so it's possible .
