flush and bleed your brake system. if there is an air bubble or old thick oil it will cause the problem.

I had same problem on my hiace
One front pad would wear down heaps quicker than the others
The machanic changed the brake line......But i can't see it fixing it...But he said he done a check and it was blocked

Yeah do a brake fluid flush, and as above make sure there are no air bubbles, it isn't that hard to you sinc you already changed a calaper

like the other blokes say a flush may do the job but if you have a blockage it may not clear when flushed. if you disconnect the brake lines & blow high pressure air through each line to ensure they are clear,reconnect,fill rebleed etc & see how you go. the fact its happened twice after replacing the caliper only leaves the possibilty of a line blockage somewhere. the chances of having two dud calipers is possible but a little unlikely
