You’re the man 👍 thanks for the video. Popped out my piston while doing my breaks on my sq5, this video gave me confidence can probably just put dust boot on without even removing the caliper off the car 😎
These calipers need to be restored and painted, they look disgusting! But that would obviously be another lengthy job. Good video showing that part of restoration specifically. What I would have done differently to avoid splashing brake fluid all over though, is to first remove the caliper with its piston (after pinching the brake hose to prevent leakage) and then, using an air compressor, to inject air behind the piston where the brake fluid usually is. With this method, the piston goes out and you don't make a mess with the brake fluid, but it requires an air compressor.
my 2014 caliper boots on the rear seemed like they were glued on to the point that I had to cut and scrape the old boot off to put the rebuild kit boot on has anyone else had this problem and how do you get the new boots to stay in place

I try
Thanks for the upload! Also blew my piston and boot right out when doing brakes and rotors 😅 ready to try and reinstall now ❤
Glad it helped!
Thanks for this. Helped me tremendously.
👍
Great detailed work Peter!
Thank you! Cheers! 🤠👍👍👍
Very details instruction and great videos! Now, I can rebuilt my brake calipers because dust boots broke.
Great to hear!
Very good and I too have a free floating vice it lives under the kitchen table!
Noted 👍
@@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor update it's permanently bolted to the table now!
What surprises me in such rubber seal part is that it withstand the hydraulic pressure to stop an entire car while being a flexible part.
Yes. Good Comment and Thanks My Friend ! More comments like That are Welcome ! 👍🤠

Thanks for comment 👍😀
Just did same with front calipers on 2011 lexus is250 . Rightside piston froze and ruined rotor.

Hmmm...you'd better clean the calliper first maybe?
Good call!
serviço porco !! misturou graxa com areia ,restante de fluido ,enfim poderia ter limpado melhor toda a pinça
esse é o verdadeiro mão suina ,kkkk

I think is much cheaper, better, faster, easier, convenience, clean, etc, buy a new one.
