rear disc brake piston won't budge

mikey69 @mikey69 (1) • United States 23 Dec 06

I was replacing the brake pads on my 1994 Honda Civic. It has 4 wheel disc brakes. The front end went fine. When I tried to change the rear brake pads I couldn't get the piston to budge at all. I don't have a special brake...

tekniker I had the same problem with my Honda. C-clamps wouldn't move the rear brake piston, even with the fluid bled. The solution that worked was a few sharp hammer blows to the piston foot, using a socket wrench extension rod as a drift.
