tug 0 Posted May 14, 2005 I'm changing the rear brakes on my VR at the moment, and I need a bit of advice.. To get the piston back into the caliper, all I need to do is wind it back in with one of those tool things, right? I've been doing this for a while and it doesn't seem to be moving, should I be doing something else? Many thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

h100vw 0 Posted May 14, 2005 They are on a very fine thread and do take some effort to move even with the right tool. Most motoring shops will have one in stock. Make sure you get the right adapter for a VW. Mine was about £20 but all the saved hospital trips means it is well paid for itself. :mrgreen: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
