Denis,

I haven't done a caliper (with on 'p'), but some
people on the Austin-Healey list, with calipers
approaching 50 years old, have separated the halves
(against "factory" recommendation; but then, what
factory?) and rebuilt them.  On those calipers,
there is a large 0-ring, square in section, that
is available from a single vendor. They've had no
problem with leaks from the new O-ring in the old
(cleaned) caliper. That said, I have no idea what
you'll find inside the Audi (Girling?) caliper.

Bon chance,

Kent
