Hi Guys
Bleeding my rear brake which is the Shimano SLX.
The pistons needed resetting and I forgot to place the spacer block in the caliper after opening the reservoir. After a couple of squeezes of the lever the left piston dropped out and all the mineral poured out.
I replaced the piston and placed the spacer block in the caliper to complete the bleed. :mmph:
When I was finished I had replaced the back wheel and was just feeling the brakes when the wheel locked up, the same piston has come out as far as the pad and rotor would allow. It is almost half way out.
I feel if I try and reset the piston again its just going to flop out again as soon as I squeeze the brake lever.
Is the caliper stuffed? :brick:
