Hi all, Trying to fit new pads and discs but the brake caliper pistons are stuck on one wheel and wont be pushed in far enough to allow new disk and pads to fit in.... Any tips??
Thanks in advance

But will they come out again when you need the brakes?

 

It was either a build up of brake fluid pressure behind the piston (releasing the bleed valve would have helped .. with tube to jar to avoid air getting in) or the pistons are corroded and could now get stuck on the seals ..

 

Hope it was the former!

Thanks, we released all the pressure before hand. All done and working now.
