Default a6 brake caliper stuck

I have a 2003 a6 2.7 t and my brake caliper is stuck on the caliper harness. I cannot get it off. I have tried hitting it with a hammer. The fasteners that hold the caliper to the harness have been removed but I cannot get the caliper to disengage from the rotor and the harness. Any suggestions?

Default RE: a6 brake caliper stuck

Sometimes the lip on the rotor dosent allow the pads to come off. If i'm changing the rotors I just pry them off. Sometimes I use a grinder and remove the lip but that is messy. and unless your careful you'll mess everything up.
