My rear brakes were making a lot of bad noises, scrapping when braking and then staying on slightly after braking so i decided to fit a new set of pads and discs.
I managed to get the new disc and pads on the passenger side rear, but then, when going to compress the piston to put the caliper back on, the piston will not compress.
I have tried taking the lid of the brake fluid reservoir and also using the bleed nipple on the caliper but to no avail.
Can anyone suggest what the issue might be and what the next steps are? I would take it to a garage but its kinda stuck now it had a missing rear brake
