You forgot to mention drive side caliber piston turns clock wise and the passenger side caliber piston turns counter clock wise there is an arrow showing which way to turn them.
I'm having a really hard time pushing back the caliper piston in the rear passenger side, even opening the brake fluid cap, or bleeding some brake fluid off the little tit, still no go... to the point I bent the plate of the rented tool that pushes it back. I was only able to push it back 3/4 of the way in, but that last 1/4 is too hard. Any tips? The caliper pads on the rear passenger side were so worn out that the pistol was pushing metal to metal basically... could this have influenced to my dilemma?
Make sure you are turning counter clockwise. If it will not depress all the way... then you may have a bad Caliper... needing replaced... it should depress as easy as the driverside the turn opposite directions though... if not you may need to replace that capliper...
Thank you so much! You are a legend for including those tiny little details that make this so much easier!!!
