It seems some are having luck reversing the piston and all associated hardware (including the EBP actuator). I understand the concern in doing so, particularly with the actuator. So the logic in removing that component makes sense to me.I think we are referring to two different retractings.
First is the little amount of retracting done by releasing the parking brake.
At this point were you able to push the piston in directly without doing the next step?
Second is the larger retracting done by using a scan tool or manually turning the E11 torx screw/bolt after removing the motor. This has to be done when worn pads are being replaced by new thick ones.
A quick lookup online shows that these motors aren't cheap either.
