C5 I brake caliper

How to remove rubber seal from front Bosch brake calipers, C5 I 2.2 HDI?

Bosh brake caliper serial 1085 and 1086. Removed piston, inner- oil seal and I clean complete caliper. But i do not know how to remove dirt - dust cover seal. It looks like that seal is pressed by force inside caliper?

Any pictures pavlebo?
Never had mine to bits so can't help, sorry.

I have now only one.

Tomorrow i will add some more pictures.

If they are the same as ones I have ruin- er - fixed in the past then they are held in place with a circlip that usually rusts in place and falls to bits when you eventually manage to release it.

If the repair kit has new circlips as well as the seals then no problem, otherwise it can be fun trying to source replacements.

I think that dust seal must be removed like on the picture nr. 6.

i would think the lip of the seal sits into a groove on the inside of the piston/caliper body bore, so it is held in place by the piston being in the bore
