Is there anything special you have to do when changing volkswagen brake pads?

I'm about to change pads on my Jetta and could not get the C-clamp to push back the brake cylinder, do you need a special tool or anything?
you should be able to borrow a screw type caliper piston compressor from auto zone or some other parts store. you will need to use this since the piston actually screws in. you should not damage any abs items for just compressing the piston. I do rear
