Hey everyone-

I need a bit of help form anyone familiar with the rear disc brake setup on my
TDI 2000 Beetle.  I am trying to replace the rear pads and need to get the
caliper piston to retract.  I realize it has this self adjusting screw that
adjusts the brakes when the emergency brake is applied.  Is there a special
tool to screw the caliper piston back in?  The piston has two cutouts.  It
looks very similar to my 96 passat but i cant seem to get it in. Turning it
doesn't help.  What's the trick!  Help!  Joel Hembel
