2017 GMC Acadia rear brake caliper compression.

I couldn't compress the piston in the rear caliper. I couldn't find a video anywhere to help me so I made this short in hopes of helping someone else.

For the 17 we have to do it that way at the dealership too, newer ones theres a way to electronicsly compress the ebrake through GDS

[@bishop7534]

Just done my brakes yesterday evening. There's a video (now) showing how to suppress the pistons, but it requires a different set of tools to do so, will come in handle down the road though.

[@bigmann434]

[@dalynchmob2000]

[@mattyhi446]

[@dennisrundell3979]

[@frankmirabelli8239]

THANKS SO MUCH I AM A TECH AND STILL HAVE NOT WORKED ON A 17 OR NEWER ANYTHING SO YOU CLEARED UP A LOT OF CONFUSION I BET MANY OF THE DIFFERENT MAKES USE THE SAME SYSTEM BECAUSE THEY COPY EACH OTHER ONCE SOMEONE COMES UP WITH A GOOD IDEA

[@markchrysler4923]

Thank you for making this video!! You saved me a whole lot of time and headache!! I did exactly as you said and it worked. And..this was the only video I found on doing this. So again, thank you!!

[@goywonder7341]

This would also explain why I "had to buy" an 18mm wrench set and couldn't use a socket to loosen the bottom bolt.

[@christerry4424]

Ur a life saver thank you!!

[@jeffragland708]

Thanks I spent about an hour and even went a borrowed a brake tool kit from auto parts store. You saved the day.

[@zibblette]

Thank you for the video. I spent 2 hrs and a bent tool later trying to figure this out.

[@roeliamireles7261]

[@jakeschuberth5725]

Thanks for sharing!!!! Your a good person!!!!

[@dirtyfkindangl6093]

Your a lifesaver I been trying to figure this out for an hour👊🍻👍CLUTCH

[@jimhofferkamp2758]

Do you have to screw the allen nut back in before putting the parking brake back on?

[@joemeyers1016]

No. The parking brake actuator will readjust.

[@BoostedSociety616]

Thank you for the tip 🫡

[@user-ii9vr8gn9u]

Mine kept going as it was off I accidentally pushed the parking break button and it tore the boot off now do I need to replace the entire thing ?

[@dalynchmob2000]

Not sure man. If the boot ripped I'd contact a service tech and ask. Prob have to replace, finish the swap, and bleed system. Just a diy'r myself, just trying to help others.

[@dsshowerpan]

Can't you turn the piston instead of taking pb assembly off?

[@michaelschwegel2986]

Thank you for making this video !

[@ronrobarts772]

Thanks, total help

[@matthewdaum8165]

thanks man

[@kennethcooper4174]

Thanks

[@FrederickBonier]

FYI guys u only can order from dealership 89 bucks. You can also turn it with a flat head. Don't attempt to turn it with pressure on piston bc u WILL STRIP THE ALLEN SCREW inside but if so relief pressure and turn with flat head.

[@Beaux2891]

Man you just saved me from burning this GMC to the ground. Lol

[@dalynchmob2000]

Lol. I about did the same thing!

[@edwardenglish5550]

Holy sh!t thanks bro!

[@dalynchmob2000]

Glad I could help. It was driving me crazy and I couldn't find a "how to" so I figured I'd try to make one.

[@peterhamilton4406]

Thanks so much! So simple...once you know!

[@akarez83]
