Whenever i clean up the calipers i push them out further than needed for braking, then i can push the pots back in with my fingers, so in that respect i will say they're not seized.
I had pads out a couple of months ago and they looked as good as new, no lumps or chunks out of them, or nothing untoward anyway.
I will try the OEM discs again, as soon as i can get a day off work, i'm on call at weekends so it's not possible for me to do it then.
I got a new pair of pad pins yesterday to go in as well, just to eliminate them from the equation.
As you mentioned, i'm also starting to think wear and tear in the calipers could well be the culprit, so i think i've got to consider changing them.
