The calipers on a Mazda 6 turn inwards you don't push them to compress them.
No need to rotate the front caliper pistons as you compress the front calipers. That process is only for the rear calipers because of the parking brake mechanism.
the piston on the rear calipers will turn in a clockwise motion and that is how they retract.
You will need the tool to retract the calipers. The piston in the rear calipers have to be turned clockwise as you compress them back in.
are u trying to change them?
Yes. If your question is regarding the operation of the calipers. They do operate in the same manner as the front calipers.
Try exerting pressure while turning clockwise to retract
with a large pear of channel locks,or a caliper compressor
The rear brake calipers screw back in. This is because of the park brake. There is a tool that you can either buy or rent from one of the larger parts stores.
It requires a special tool to twist the piston back into the caliper.
you take a pair of plyers or a caliper kit from autozone and turn in the calipers. You have to turn them clockwise to make them go back in. do not try and compress them in, you will damage them.
You can purchase a disc brake tool for compressing the calipers at any auto parts dealer for about $8.00. You will also need to have the brake fluid filler cap off.
