Front brake pad rattle

Post by oyster »

Has anyone cured the constant rattle? It needs some sort of retainer spring. No problem at motorway speeds, but around town the noise has finally got to me.

The oe pads have a spring where the retaining pin goes through. it's not always fitted to aftermarket stuff.
