Question Caliper Piston Question.

I'm going to be doing my back brakes tomorrow, pads and rotors. I was flipping through the guide on Audiworld.com and it says that the tool twists the piston as its pushing it in. Is that of any importance? I was going to use a piece of wood and a big pair of pliers to push it back in. Is that okay or do I need the tool to rotate the piston?

Thanks in advance,

G

You have to use a tool that actually screws them in or out
