they probably wind back in and you will need a tool to do this are there dimples in the face of the piston where the pads fit?

i have skoda myself and had the same problem.the piston has to be wound back and not pushed.you will need a special tool for this or as i did make up your own using a socket with shoulders cut in it to fit grooves on piston .
