I'm having an issue reseting the caliper on my rear brakes. On other cars I've owned I use a C clamp or breaker bar to push it back in but the caliper on the Acura doesnt want to move. Is there something different about the acura calipers that require them to be reset differently?

It does have an ABS system, there also is an slotted "X" pattern on the piston, but it didn't seem to turn either.

you will need a special tool to push and twist the caliper piston back into its bore.
