Re: Caliper Rattle Front

This is definitely only going over bumps, I’m going to check the carrier pins for tightness later to ensure they’re secure. But I’m usually pretty careful with this stuff.

Re: Caliper Rattle Front

They don’t have springs, some do though but not these, I’m referring to the metal clips on the back of the pad used for mounting.

I recently replaced my front brake discs and pads on my polo (2016), I noticed there were no anti-rattle parts on the caliper or on the pads. When going over bumps you can hear the front brakes rattling, going over bum...

I've just realised the drivers side footwell is soaked (we have had heavy rain lately.. as as most of the UK!), it appears that the most wet part is between the seat and the pedals. Feeli...
