I'm going to replacing my pads and rotors on all 4 wheels on my Santa Fe this weekend. I've never done brakes on the Santa Fe and am curious about pushing the caliper piston back into it's bore to 'reset' it. The haynes manual I have suggests to press the piston back in as the first thing after the wheel comes off BEFORE the old pads come out. I don't even see how it's possible to do this. From all the info I see on the web you need to remove the old pads, then compress the piston, then install the new pads. Can someone please clarify this for me? Thanks.
