https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...d.php?t=221631

ive never done anything im still a newbie at working with cars so anyhow i needed new brakes since i could hear dem n car wont stop as good n when i took off the tire found out that the brakes had eaten the rotor too so i did both well replacing rotor was not a problem but while putting the pads in the calipers step 12 suggested u push the hydrolic thing back so i did it but the caliper metals moved n now theres no space in there to squeeze the second brakepad in there
make it simple the caliper is made of 2 metal pieces in which the pads are those metal pieces got pushed n now theres no space any help would be a lot appreciated
this is kind of urgent as i need the car on monday to work n back thank you in advance for help
