so check this out. im driving home from work. i granny drive when im not on the highway btw. and i hear somethin rubbin on my car. i finally get home to find that my driver rear rotor was bein eaten by my brake pad. i take apart the assembly and find that the pad still had a bit more meat on it. and no cracks or burn marks either. baffled i go and buy new pads. i throw on a c-clamp on the caliper but i doesnt budge. took apart the other side. same deal. the caliper cylinder will not budge. so i drained the lines. same deal. now my S is in shambles. oh and i pulled up the e-brake a few times to see if they were seized. and one cylinder fell out. so how do i depress the cylinder so as to fit the new pads???

i PMed Scott but havent gotten a response so i hope anyone else has a solution

thanks

Luis

 

you need a special tool because of the e-brake

it screws back in - you can't push them in

 

 

WTF IS THAT!?

 

autozone should have the one above

or something like this

how can i find that tool? Autozone maybe?

 

props to erick for teaching me this

that's a 6 way rear brake tool - you need to screw the calipers back in so that one is just a multi tool and you line up the correct pins and screw the caliper back in with a socket wrench

 

k thanks Bass

and yup autozone has it

it's $12.00 - it's easier if you open the bleeder valve
