If you mean low of brake fluid, the answer is no. When a caliber locks up it is usually caused by contamination of moisture in the brake fluid. This causes the caliber to rust and then it will lock up. You are more than likely going to have to replace both front calipers. You also need to flush your brake system and put in fresh brake fluid.

How do you get a 2001 VW Bug out of park?
Make sure you have your foot all the way down solid on the brake pedal. There is a locking mechanism that prevents the car from being moved out of park unless the brake is firmly depressed. A mis-adjusted brake switch or the lock mechanism could go bad also, so listen for a light clicking sound when you press the brake (releasing the lock mechanism). If you dont' hear anything, it might be broke or stuck. I am not aware of anything special other than that.

You will need a helper. Start at the Right Rear wheel and have the helper push down on the brake pedal and hold pressure then you will turn the bleed screw on the caliber counterclockwise. Once the brake pedal goes to the floor tighten the bleeder valve and then tell the helper to release the brake pedal. Keep repeating this until you see no more air bubble escaping from the caliber. Repeat these steps at the LR, the RF, and end up at the LF caliber. Make sure the helper keeps the master cylinder full at all times.

More than likely the ratchet mechanism that causes the brake pedal to lock down is broken, perhaps due to a broken or disconnected spring. The "weird sound" could be the remainder of the mechanism brushing against the teeth where it would normally lock.
