sheppeydave 0 Posted September 10, 2014 Having a bit of trouble changed my rear discs and pads today discs and bearing went fine but when I go to fit the calipers back with new pads they are so tight I have to hammer them back on in turn can't drive the car because they are too tight has anyone had this problem before I have wound the pistons back as far as they can go with the proper tool just seems like the new pads are too thick😞😞😞???

16VG60 1 Posted September 10, 2014 Have you checked the slider pins inside the rubber bellows on the calliper carriers are free moving ? If not these will prevent good fitting. Another thing to check is that you have the correct thickness brake pads. Motor factors very often supply parts that are similar but incorrect. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
