Anybody had the same caliper stick within a year?

Last year I had a brake judder and traced it to the front ns caliper. Temps were high plus more brake dust.

So I changed the caliper for one from ECP and all was fine.

Now I have the same problem one year later and again that caliper! Am I just unlucky or had anybody else had this?
 
Not on the zed - I had a calliper replaced on a car at mot as it was seized - three years later the same one again!
So it does happen.
 
More right turns on UK roads due to roundabouts etc. The NS will get more pressure that the OS.
 
I sold my Z4 in jan this year... Just under 50k miles/ and over 7 years old and still on the original disks and pads!

I take it the brake fluid has been changed regularly/ every 2 year? I'd find a new caliper to sieze within a year suprising unless the brake fluid was old.
 
Either that or the protective covering is not on there properly letting grit in.
