I had this with mine a while ago, it turned out to be the flexi hose breaking down internally. It looked fine but was giving under pressure. If all seems well at the calipers, and the rears are pulling equally then it's something to check out.

So you've identified the right caliper as faulty, siezed pistons ? get a repair kit and strip and clean and replace the seals that should sort it.

Not had chance yet, don't want to strip it down because its my only car at the moment as my other one is at the garage having work done
