Default Brake Caliper Problem

The brake caliper piston is frozen on the front right. Just wondering before we go try and take it off if there is a easier way to get it unfrozen without taking the whole caliper off, and cleaning the piston. Thanks

I don't believe so. You can try to release the pressure in the brake fluid system by opening the MC cap, or removing part of the brake line, however, a frozen piston is a frozen piston.

Maybe someone else has an idea.

well I'm pretty sure its a frozen piston...which would be easy to replace if the upper bolt holding on the caliper wasn't frozen too. anybody got ideas?
