Wonderful job and to the point video

[@JohnMbewe-bm1zg]

Great job man what can I do to push the piston down without a tool

[@AlbanianFix]

Thank you! I’m not sure since I did this manually but look here in the comments, there is someone who said that you could easily do it from the cars dashboard where you can revert the piston automatically back in its place without lifting a finger.

[@jchc85]

You can try using a large C Clamp

[@9jmorrison]

Also to vent the brake master may help

[@AlbanianFix]

Thanks dude!

Disconnect electric motor. ( 2 torx) than inside by torx you rotate the mechanism. Than you can push the piston by simple tool.

[@AlbanianFix]

Didn’t know that. Will do next time! Thanks a lot!!

[@bishopsoren2682]

Dunno if anyone cares but if you're bored like me atm then you can watch all of the latest movies and series on InstaFlixxer. I've been streaming with my girlfriend these days :)

[@kameronkayson7120]

@Bishop Soren Yea, I've been using instaflixxer for months myself :)

[@rolri99]

Or remove the electric connection and use 12V with a cable to rewind the motor. I do so and it works good.

@@AlbanianFix You don't know but making videos to teach others to destroy their cars.

[@thoringg]

Where did you get that tool for the caliper?

[@sPeeDeeKris]

Robert Van Huizen it’s in the description.

[@jchc85]

If you have an Autozone near you (and possibly similar auto parts places), they will lend you this tool. Mine required a 60 dollar deposit, fully refundable after I returned the tool.

[@robpaton9760]

I removed motor & wound back caliper manually, then no need to spin piston

[@AlbanianFix]

Thanks for the tip 👍

[@danielkershaw2559]

Do they need a wind back tool? If so I'm selling it lol

[@D5DRIFT]

Mate. There is a much more easier way to do this. 9v battery onto the pins of the electric motor and it winds it back in

[@AlbanianFix]

Lol, yeah I’ve heard this before and I probably would’ve done it if it was my car but I was afraid burning something up 😂😂

[@johnmcminn9455]

What year volvo is this

[@AlbanianFix]

2012

[@johnmcminn9455]

@AlbanianFix Thanks! working on the same one

[@03kwam65]

Pads were worn down to the metal and customer didnt wanna replace the rotors 🤨???

[@AlbanianFix]

🤷‍♂️

[@Pelinas]

You should remove a electric motor, it is much easier

[@AlbanianFix]

I thought this was spring loaded like in some other cars, lol.

[@byubadgerprofessor]

Don't follow this video - as D5Drift said, it is way easier if you first wind back the electronic parking brake with a 9V battery. See this video: czcams.com/video/8y54DKRHlAo/video.html
I followed that procedure and it was really easy to push back the piston. I was able to do it with light pressure from a C-clamp.

[@tonyno71258]

evidentemente non conosci Volvo. Stai facendo un lavoro assolutamente sbagliato e stai danneggiando l’impianto!

[@AlbanianFix]

Sì è corretto! Ho imparato dai miei errori e ora so che Volvo ha lo sbloccaggio automatico del pistone. Grazie per il feedback.
