When winding back the piston, the bleed nipple should be open and a pipe fitted to collect the fluid. This should prevent damage to the square backed piston seal from being damaged. Also pads with backing should not be greased as this can damage the backing liner in some cases, the fitting instructions will give advice. Remember to adjust the handbrake afterwards. Good videos, I hope this helps some of the readers,
@bodgitandleggitgarage7 жыл бұрын
Paul Jeffreys the only thing I agree with you is about tightening the handbrake afterwards on certain vehicles but when you whine back the piston the handbrake adjusts on some vehicles so it's not an issue I've been doing this for years and know people that been doing it for longer than I've been alive never once had a problem pushing back the piston

bodgit is to young to know that years ago the seals in the master cylinder was turning over when you pushed back the pistons. This is why so many cars was having the foot pedal go down to the floor when driving.

Hi Leon, on the drivers side on these Auris's, does the drivers rear caliper retract the opposite way? The passenger one is clockwise piston going in and the drivers is anticlockwise going in.

@bodgitandleggitgarage4 жыл бұрын
hi mate it could be a couple of things maybe one of the brake pads on sitting in properly maybe you've got a lot of rust around the caliper and carrier and they are sitting in properly also the caliper could be slightly seized also you could have a bit of air in your system unfortunately is a few things you'll have to go through everything step-by-step if you've got really old brake fluid in your car your best replacing it as it could be contaminated with water

hi mate it doesn't have to necessarily lineup just as long as it doesn't hit the little nipple sticking out of the brake pad this will cause the brake pad to wear unevenly and the piston not to to apply even pressure on the brake pad
