Here arethe instructions from the official GM ServiceManual for the Cadillac Deville, Year 2000 Model for compressing the rear piston:
Volume 1, Page 5-50: "3. If new brake pads are being installed in the vehicle it may be necessary to bottom the caliper piston completely inro the caliper bore. Use a large C clamp and compress the piston into the caliper bore."

RE: 98 Deville rear brakes
I put a pair of needle nose in the detents as suggested and turned about 25 rotations in both directions.The piston did not move in or out.This is when I used the c-clamp,bleeder open,screwing in slowly.Brakes are in work fine. Soooooo if they don't screw in and a clamp is not the correct way to do this.What Is?
