Review on 🔧 High-Quality Capri Tools 30035: 10mm XZN Triple Square Bit Socket - 3/8-Inch Drive by Edgar Gomez

Nice work. I used this tool to remove the rear brake calipers from my 2006 VW Jetta. No doubt it will take 100 years or more. For those of you replacing rear brake pads for the first time, read on. The rear caliper pistons on either side of your VW Jetta do not compress backwards like regular calipers do. There is no need to purchase an expensive compression tool to compress the piston back to the closed position. You can do this by simply pressing on the plunger with an inexpensive plunger expander and medium sized pliers. First spray some WD40 on the black dust cover on the back of the front of the piston so it doesn't crack when the piston is turned counterclockwise. Now take the piston expander with the old outer brake pad and apply good pressure. Then take the channel locking pliers, adjust to the correct size and, being careful not to pinch the rubber boot, grasp the front of the plunger and turn the plunger counter-clockwise and the ratchet plunger will slowly return to the closed position return. The piston expander must be constantly tightened while maintaining pressure on the piston or it will not move back.
