So, my pads are REALLY worn, so im changing them. After i see how worn they are, i see that ill need to take the whole caliper off...it would be easier to get a vice clamp in there t compress the piston.
Well...the main piston went in fine...but the outer piston that moves the outer brake pad was pushed OUT further...and now i cant budge it back in. It will rock left or right, but not go back in. then a bit of fluid seeped out and i knew i was in trouble.
What gives..how can i get this piston back to get the pads changed? I need the car for work tonight. =\
