Hi, I am replacing the rear rotors and pads on my 97. I know that you have to screw the piston back into the caliper (instead of squeezing like most pistons), but it won't go in far enough to fit over the new pads/rotor. Any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

 

I figured it out- well, the internet figured it out for me... you have to PUSH AND TWIST the piston to get it to retract all the way. Thank you Youtube.

 

Glad you figured it out! I picked up one of these cheap universal tools that you can attach to a socket wrench:
I ended up using it on 3 Acuras, 2 Hondas, and a Ford Focus. Definitely worth the 10 bucks if you think you'll ever change your pads or a friend's pads again.
