    For anyone doing this you have to start with the Handbrake in the Off Position, The Piston is a straight push back no windback tool required on the Electric Parking Brake Models.

      That's useful to know.
      Front discs already done last week, rear discs next.

      not necessarily, they weren’t slippery at all and had no problem braking since 😄regards

    Per arretrare il pistone dietro non serve il computer?oppure l'hai fatto con frenamano non inserito?grazie e complimenti

      there’s a way of doing it as described in the video, no need for a computer😀and you can hear the pistons retracting, then you’re ready to do the job

    You should degrease the disk before installing. The discs got a protective seal against rust before leaving the factory.

      It might depend on the brand used, as the ones I used were quite abrasive and didn’t feel greasy😃

      The discs i bought it specifically said there is no need to degrease discs.​@@sCARs20

      that factory grease burns out fast

    • @-DC-
      @-DC- Před 2 měsíci

      Some brands don't use grease, They have a coating that rubs off soon as you start braking.

    When i removed my caliper today the piston is slightly proud, maybe 2 mm, couldnt get it to go back at all. The hand brake was off and the brake fluid resovoir lid was off. Their was quite a bit of corrosion around the brake hub area, but even cleaned up i couldnt get it to move. Any suggestions on how i might move this otherwise there isnt enough room to get new pads in?

      is there any rust on the piston? dont know what you mean by “oroud”

      Shouldve read the piston 'the piston is slightly proud' sticks out 2mm or so from being flush

    • @sCARs20
      @sCARs20  Před měsícem +1

      that 2mm shouldn’t really make a difference. what did you use to push the piston back?and is the rubber seal that covers the piston intact?

      @@sCARs20 the seal is in good condition, but unlike when I did the front brakes and moved the piston, the rear one didn't move. I'm gonna have to have another look at that and double check otherwise there's definitely not enough inside the caliper for the pads and disc. Should there be much movement of the piston?

      @@sCARs20 i tried to move the piston back but it wasnt budging.. i was going to get hold of a brake piston cube to see if it had any further back to go. im guessing i cant use a screwdriver to lever it back like i did the front brake piston?
