Is this a Seized Caliper?
I have had an annoying high pitched noise since i have had the car (since Jan) and checked all brake pads (Like New).
My front right caliper get alot hotter than the other 3, could this be a Seized Caliper? and the cause of the high pitched noise?

Sticky caliper or a sticky slider pin. Remove the caliper from the carrier to find out what's up. A slicky slider will often cause one part of the pad to wear more than the rest, allowing the low pad indicator to squeal on the disk.
If it is the caliper, rebuild it, or just get a decent secondhand one, available from breakers, eBay, or one of the members breaking an S on here (check the FS section for further details).
