<![CDATA[Calipers playing up]]>Any advice on how to get the piston back in on rear brake calipers would be greatly appreciated.
Tried everything I can think of including a selection of clamps & levering with screwdrivers etc.

**Buy a windback tool.

But, honestly, if you need a windback tool and screwdrivering it doesn't do anything, you've got issues with the piston anyway.**

In one hour last night I got more achieved than I had in the past two evenings.

Dead easy, Thanks for the tip!
