Peter,

That is interesting. Do you remember if the piston would retract a bit after sitting for a while? Perhaps I am interpreting the post wrong but it seems his brakes would drag after driving for a while and then evidently retract some before he once again drove the car only to find the brakes starting to drag again.

I was under the impression that once a caliper is split it is difficult to prevent them from leaking. Are there O-rings between the halves and did you replace those?
