hi everyone went to change my front brake pads today and could not move the piston back far enough to get the new pads in.the pads had very little left on so should imagine the piston was quite far out.tried to push back in with the piston tool but no joy.took the brake fluid res cap off aswell no joy,should i back off the bleed nipple off to,cheers dave

Try pumping the piston back out again a bit and then try again.

If the piston misaligns it can easily jam.

I use a G clamp to wind it in

It will go, if it doesn't then it might need a clean out.

Aye, G clamp is what I use.

thanks everyone,cheers dave
