Change front brake rotors on a 1998 Hyundai Accent?
If you can't compress the piston with a C clamp back in to position to fit the new brake pads I would suggest replacing the caliper completely.
You have a rusty brake caliper. The piston is probably so rusted that its so tight for the piston to retract everytime you release the brake pedal. The only remedy for that problem is to buy a new or rebuilt caliper and replace the defective one...........You might want to consider replacing both....
Corroded calibers that are rusting and sticking. Moisture is in the brake fluid. Replace the calibers and replace all the brake fluid. It can also be a sticking slide pin on the brake assembly. Check that before replacing the caliber.
If it is the front brake use a "C" clamp to retract piston If it is the rear and the parking brake is used by this caliper piston is threaded and a special tool (not expensive) available at Sears or auto parts to "screw" piston into caliper body
You can use a large C-Clamp to compress the caliper piston.
No, doing a brake job does nothing to the front end.
If on the rear you might have to turn the piston clockwise. If on the front you must force the piston in.
quoted $300 for front brake pads, figure I can do no own for less
Brake piston? Front use a "C" clamp to compress Rear - Piston is threaded turn clockwise to compress (water pump pliers?)
