Correct. Caliper pins are stuck. If you have the non-vented rotor, either get it fixed or upgrade to the B14 rotor and calipers or Y11 AD spindle/caliper/rotor.

I think it is, but Im not certain... do a forum search and see what you get, and then you can ask around to verify.

I've checked a few a foreign used parts dealers and they've all told me that the B14 rotors and calipers are a bolt for bolt upgrade in the B12.
