Thanks! I was going nuts today trying to compress the piston with the old par wondering why the universe hates me. Then I looked it up and figured out what was going on and this video helps for when I get the tool. Next issue to tackle: how to get the center nut off the rear without vented brakes (I can't do the screwdriver trick). For some STUPID reason Hyundai uses the center nut to lock on the rotors on the new cars. Not the rotor screws, already got them out, had to use an impact wrench, though. They want us all to give up DIY and spend hundreds at a shop.
The video never actually shows the piston retracting. I feel this was important and it should have been included.
Hey there! That's a fair point! Hopefully it is explained clearly enough so you know what should happen/what to do, but I appreciate your point! Hopefully we can show it in the near future in a brake removal video.

We have an Audi A6 rear disc and pad change video going live over the next few days BTW, and this includes some good footage of the caliper being retracted with the tool. So be sure to check that one out :-)
Total Technik I know it's been a yr. For quick to go to that video should have link the video here to your comment. Just saying. No personal. Thanks for showing us the tool. 👍🏻
Is this an air tool or hand tool
@@kamran3013 hand
That was very useful. I have bought a kit with no instructions similar to teh one that you have but an eBay one no doubt from China but never mind. Thanks agian.
Hope you enjoy the video, and find it useful. These kits are a really good investment, and can be bought very inexpensively on eBay - well worth a buy! This video is not sponsored, and loads of companies make them - so check out the set that seems the best quality at the best price! Different kits come with different numbers of adapters BTW, so bear that in mind if buying a set as not all contain the same amount of bits!!
I need a Very shallow
Phillip's screwdriver Shaped Rewind tool for
13'Fusion rear Caliper. None of the Tool kits seem
To have that Shape Tool
Excellent demonstration
This clip delivered some useful info, but as others have pointed out, a demonstration it was not.
Great easy to follow video, just got my kit practicly same as yours and was confused🤔. Understand now thank you.
Glad to hear we could help :-)

Great video. I wonder why the rear has to be turned and the front just had to be pressed??
Great video, thank you!
Excellent explanation. Many thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the video! Just received a similar tool set from Amazon, had no idea how to use it and the paper instructions are garbage. This tool is definitely a life saver for pushing back the piston. Tried using needle nose pliers at first, then gave up after 15 minutes lol
Glad you found the video helpful :-)

For the rear brakes you don't need the plate in most cases.I just put the correct adaptor on my one and hold the tool on the piston turning it while pushing in by hand.Alot quicker. For the fronts I just use a glamp to push the piston in.
Yes, you can not use the plate on the rears if you prefer (unless they are stubborn!) May save a few seconds, or longer if you are unsure which to use as unsure on the rewind direction :-)

I came on here to say, how do you tell which way to turn it without damaging anything, I would say this is the way! 😊
I’m trying to use this Ake tool kit to push the piston back in for my 2016 Polaris slingshot sl. Everything was working fine until I dismounted the caliper to replace the break pads. Once I changed the break pads the piston came out and is not letting me push it back in with the tool set. Idk what to do I’m not a car guy I already tried using this set and releasing the break fluid thing too. The set fits good but I can’t turn the knob. Idk if it’s too hard or if something else is stoping it from turning
Bloody hell I just got this kit, didn't know how you put the backing plate on the screw thingy, different design to other kits this kit.. well you slide it over the handle..
Many thanks for the video, think I had a dumb 2 mins there! 😂
Glad it was helpful :-)

Direction of the rotation of the rewind tool is what I am just thinking about. I have replaced discs and pads of my Opel Astra Twintop 1,8, 2007. In the videos and manuals there is shown and written that the direction should be clockwise. For both of rear wheels? I think the direction must depend on the side of the car as the directions of rotations of the actuating levers related to caliper are different for the left and right wheels.
It should be noted that the long nut has to be adjusted as the piston is screwed in.
Can you just rewind it by gripping it with vice grips and turning it or does it require pressure and turning at the same time?
Good video thanka
Thank you!

Hello my friend, can you tell me if the audi s4 b6 front kepler brake fits a 2001 audi a4 b6 tdi quattro...thanks
Yes, B6/B7 S4 front (and rear!) brake calipers fit the standard A4 B6/B7. You need to ensure your wheels have enough clearance for the larger caliper. Most 18" wheels will be fine, and pretty much all 19's.

on my Audi A8 D3, rear pistons, dont have the grooves for the pins to rewind it, is it correct assume that they can be just pushed in, like the fronts?
Easiest way to know is the park brake. If park brake is built into the caliper then you need to wind it back. If the park brake is drum style then you don’t need to
@@FleetTech97 I had to double check this with Audi specialist, The ebrake is built into the caliper, but on the A8 D3, the piston can be just pushed back, without winding it.
So I put it on my caliper put the piston in and now I can’t get the damn tool off the caliper, any trick to loosen this tool once it’s on and tight? my caliper does not twist counter clock wise 🙈
Thanks
Thank you!

Does threaded rod diameter matter? Do you need exact number of rotations to push piston certain amount? For example: Will rotating caliper 5 times and pushing it in 20mm be more/less proper compared to rotating it 10 times and pushing it 20mm?
If I were to make this tool, do I need to make note of anything, or just "rotate it a few times while pushing it in"?
No, the diameter of the thread on the rod itself does not matter at all. And as for rewinding the caliper, you simply do it until it stops. Once stopped, it's fully rewound and ready for the new pads. I definitely would not consider making one f these as they are so cheao to buy (see Amazon links in the Video Description). It would cost more to make than to buy for sure! Hope that helps :-)

Do left and right calipers rewind clockwise /counter clockwise or is it manufacturers specific
It is manufacturer (or sometimes even caliper by caliper!) specific. You can Google search and often find the answer, or just turn slowly and watch if it is rewinding or forwarding the piston, if forwarding just change it over.

Great explanation! One thing that makes no sense to me is the poison on caliper isn't threaded so what is being "rewound"?
Thank you! Ok, so on a typical front caliper the piston is not threader, it just goes back and forward, so you use the plate in the set that has no notches. However, on a typical rear caliper the piston is threaded (allows for handbrake auto adjustment as pads wear down) so you use a plate with the same size notches as the piston, and that literally does rewind the piston back into the caliper housing. And different makes/models of caliper can have the rewind in different directions, hence two bars in these sets, with threads in opposite directions. So these kits can basically do the vast majority of cars. Hope that helps :-)

Perfect, straight to the point 👍
Should also have included how to find out which way the tool turns, clockwise or anti clockwise.
It is manufacturer (or sometimes even caliper by caliper!) specific. You can Google search and often find the answer, or just turn slowly and watch if it is rewinding or forwarding the piston, if forwarding just change it over.

I would’ve like to saw the tool actually turn the piston.
You can check out any of our Brake videos to see the tool in use, hope this helps!

How do you know piston goes right or left
You can do a quick Google search before you start the job, or otherwise you can give it a quick try to see. You will spot alsmot immediately if it is going in or out, just don't wind out too far and you'll be fine. Slow and easy.

Just the job - clear video and audio with no camera waving. No instructions with the kit I bought !
Excellent! Glad you found it helpful!

Lots of explanation (and a fair bit of repetition) EXCEPT; how do you know which tool to use on which side!
You can normally see if it is turning the right or wrong way. You can always do a quick Google search beforehand if you want to find out which direction it is for your particular model.
