Hi, I found the auto adjuster very fiddly, in the end I disconnected the handbrake cable completely, wound back the piston and made sure all was free then fitted new pads, gave it a run with the cable still off and when I felt the pads were bedding in nicely then put cables back on.worked for me anyway, have heard horror stories of trying to get them to self adjust after fitting new pads.
