I am changing the front pads on my 06 - and I must have missed the secret handshake class on changing from pads. I have the service manual and read thru a bunch of post and they all say - it's easy. I had change tons of pads on my cars and purchased a brake pad spreader to make the process "oh so easy". However, I seem to be missing that small bit of info or tool to make this a "15 min" process.
I have the pads off - have tried to push the pistons back in - but can't seem to get the right pad shoved (sorry slid) back into place. Off to dinner party now, so will have to continue later. This is just the right caliper - haven't even started on the left side.
any advice.
btw - i was trying not to remove the calipers at all - so I have loosen those bolts at all - is that needed?
Thanks for any advice.
