Evening all, I tore into my rear caddy calipers to try and fine tune the intial setting and there is at least a dozen ways on you tube to fine tune the setting and not one works so I went into it. I see how the parking brake works but can't see how the piston moves, I know it does but how does it move with the screw inside it and the piston is pinned to a spot on the pad so it won't turn. Any Ideal on how to fine tune the initial setting and how it actually works or self adjust. It's an old style off a caddy with the lever stop cast in and it measures 61mm. any suggestions?

never did a Caddy rear. My VW and Kia I screw the piston all the way in using the loaner brake kit from Advance. Thgen bleed. The pumping during bleed runs the pistons out.
