my C70 was doing the same thing ! must be a common fault ! i squeezed the piston out completely , cleaned it up with emery paper , copper grease it and stuck it back in ! jobs a good un ! not the first volvo i've had that the calipers have ceased on ! i wonder if its cos most don't drive them hard enough !??

+1 on the above. I had a seized one on the rear on my GLT, failed the MOT here last year. Did a very similar thing to that mentioned above & it passed at the re-test.
Try it & then watch your disc 'clean-up' as a tell-tale to it working. Once done tho' it might pay to replace your pads & discs. I've yet to do mine, the seized on one has worn that disc, just about to it's limit - advisory on the pass.

I must get on and do that!
