Brake Caliper Stuck
I jump start the car after long time,it started. Thanks for all your input but its not the end. When I started the car something was burning, I think it might be oil. It was coming out underneath where is says jaguar in this image, mostly towards right. It stopped after sometime. Car doesn't go over 3500 rpm as ABS, traction, stability lights are on, I think I will have to reset those. I didn't drive car for almost 4 months. Brake caliper is still stuck. Please give me advise on how to release caliper and reset those sensors. If you can or have any video or pics it will be great.

If the brake caliper is "stuck" after sitting, I would be worried that there may be condensation in the fluid, so the prudent thing would be to remove the caliper, and either buy the $50.00 (I think) kit and "rebuild" it OR if you are not real familiar with brake components and fitting o-rings and such, buy a rebuilt caliper from an online vendor or even AutoZone. Rebuilt units are pretty cheap now and I have not heard of anyone with a bad rebuild. Then follow online intructions and flush the brake lines and bleed.
