Hi, a friend of mine owns a 156 Twinspark, and has already removed his rear wheel to replace winter tyres. Found out the pad are down to steel, and removed them as well. Now he cannot get the caliper to retract. He called me for help, as I drove a 156 V6, Guilietta, GTV 2.5, GTV 2.0, Alfetta, but that was up to 4 years ago, and I cannot help him!


Can anyone please provide help/assistance/step by step procedure/link to on-line manual?? It's Easter weekend, and he will be stuck without transport until Tuesday if no-one can help.

Thanks so long

Hi,

Gerhardac if it is convenient for you, please make a drawing or a photo of the tool as it is a shame to pay a garage for brake pads replacement.

I have seen such tool and it is a cylinder with two notches at the end which attach to the brake piston. On the other end you can use a 1/2 inch rachet for convenience.

Best regards,
