I've done this once before but have totally forgotten how...

Done the front ones no probs but on the rear ones how the hell do u get the master cylinder to push back in? It doesnt seem to just push in like the front ones, do you need to detach the handbrake cable or something?

it's doing my head in

oh yea its a 6N2 16v

Master cylinder? I'm assuming you mean the brake caliper piston. You need a special tool for this, as the piston needs to be twisted at the same time as being pushed back in...

oh yea thats what i meant, was just looking at master cylinders on ebay so got mixed up lol.

Yea I thought you needed a special tool but i managed to do it last time without it...my dad probably made a tool for it. better give him a phone

vice grip and pushing down with a torque wrench for the win

That will be the caliper fucked then

G-clamp??

You don't NEED a special tool but it just makes the job a shit load easier. Like all special tools do. That's what they're for.

That will be the caliper fucked then

hardly, the "special tool" is just a wedge that locks in to the piston and allows you to push down at the same time as turning, the same as having two people do the pushing and turning with two tools

Oh I misread your post

I thought you said you just forced it in with a vice for some reason haha

hehe yea well in that case then i'd agree with you, it would be totally fucked

So, er, where abouts in Aberdeenshire you live then

I live in gourdon, it's down the coast right inbetween stonehaven and montrose, how about yourself?
