How do you move the rear piston. I am not able to push it in, I tried pliers, and screw drivers. The piston keeps rotating, but does not go inside. Anyone know a way to remove it? other than paying Mazda for the expensive ass tool.


Thanks.

Yeah, its being turned the correct way.(you can only turn one way correct?) I took me forever t make the piston rotate, but it seems as though it keeps rotating and does not actually go inside. How should i push so it rotates and goes inside?


Thanks.

Use it with your socket wrench. Push and turn. It's a bitch sometimes.
