Hi All,
I was changing back pads and discs on my Renault Master 2.5, 2005 model. I managed one side fine. The 2nd side the piston came out - I think I was winding the wrong way!!. Is it just a case of trying to screw piston back in? It seems to be a 4 start left hand thread - hence how I managed to wind it out. I have tried but I'm not having much joy - I haven't got the proper wind back tools - only a big screwdriver which manages to turn it but doesn't put much pressure on it though. Do I need to buy tools, only one I've seen so far was in screwfix - £62!!
Any advice much appreciated.
Also why are brakes like this now - used to be I just loosened the bleed nipple and managed to push or wedge piston back on older cars. changed pads, bled it and all was good.
Thanks,
Iain.
