Remove wheels Remove caliper mounting bolts Slide caliper off rotor Disengage parking brake to remove rear rotors Rotor should slide off hub (if peel off type) Use a rubber mallet if any corrosion is binding rotor If not bearings have to be removed (write back for procedure)
If the caliper is sticking or you can't get the piston pushed back in it's best to just buy a new caliper.
It requires a special tool to twist the piston back into the caliper.
what is a caliper reset tool? never heard of one.calipers reset themselves when installed properly could b they are thinking of a C clamp
Disconnect the Battery Negative (black) Cable & secure away from post. Jack up car & remove under cover. Disconnect the large & the small cables from the Starter. Remove the Starter mounting bolts. Remove Starter. Installation is reverse.....
Look at your drivers manual.. where ever the park switch is, look for a "R".

Remove wheel. Using 15mm socket and ratchet handle, remove bolts on Caliper. Open cap on brake fluid reservoir. Carefully push piston back into caliper to clear worn pads, then remove. Do NOT let caliper hang or dangle. Using one of old pads, push piston fully into caliper with clamp. Pads slide in and out. Inspect rotor for scoring or other wear. Reverse to assemble. Clean as you go. Take the car to a shop that does brakes. These newer cars are a lot trickier than those of the bygone era, and it is too easy to get yourself into expensive trouble.
