Sounds like it, one way of finding out is it to hot to touch. { Be carefull mind. }

Well, unless you have been driving like a madman, it does sound like it is seized.

Like Keith says, if it is giving off a lot of heat, that is also an indication.

Never drive like madman, when braking seems like it's not stopping had similar problem with is220d seem only 1 side. see what lexus find on Tues

If caliper is seized, the disc would soon become hot seen them glow before.
