Uneven brake pad wear
When mine first wore badly on one side I did some trouble shooting and figured out I hadn't greased the sliding pins on that set when I put the pads in. I've installed 3 or 4 sets of pads since then and have never had them wear too much unevenly. So for me, greasing the sliding pins was the answer.
I just had to R/R my right rear caliper because one of the pistons froze up....smoked the pads and caused them to wear at an angle.
Remember when compressing the caliper pistons, they should retract with little effort. If not , you may have a corroded piston.
