Re: Rear Brakes - 2003 9-3 Posted by Nick Taliaferro [Email] (#78) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Nick Taliaferro) on Sun, 10 Oct 2004 18:19:32 In Reply to: Rear Brakes - 2003 9-3, Randy DeWitt, Fri, 8 Oct 2004 14:17:53 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
If your car is the 2003 Sedan (new style 9-3) the handbrake is integrated into the caliper and uses the same pads. The piston must be retracted by turning the piston. There is a cool factory tool but you could probably find a compatible universal tool with some searching locally.
If 2003 Cv (old chassis 9-3) then either there is some corrosion or the piston is over-extended and will need to be carefully aligned and slid back in.
Hope this helps. NCT
