The master cyl wouldn't have anything to do with this, but the 
calipers might. Check the 2 disks after a drive; is one hotter than 
the other. If so the caliper on the hot side is sticking. It could be 
the caliper's fault, or just the hose.

You can also stick your finger between the pad backing plate and 
the caliper while someone else presses the brake. You can 
actually feel the pad move and retract. If you have one that you 
can't feel much movement on, then that is a problem.
