How do I replace the rear brake pads on my renault modus?

I have tried to replace the rear pads,but am not able to compress the piston even using a G clamp and have taken the cap off the fluid cylinder

You can't compress the piston because you have to wind it back in with either the special tool or what I used was a pair of swan neck grips ,taking care NOT TO DAMAGE THE RUBBER !

If tried to compress it with a g clamp you may damage the thread .
Hopes this helps .

Undo the bleed nipple.
