15eren Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Hi I have cleaned the front brakes with brake cleaner, smeared the back of the pads with copper grease and replaced the pads. The pads seem to be a little loose in the calipers. When I brake i hear a click and when i release the brake i hear af new click after 1 or two seconds. Anybody else had this issue and any ideas?

aardvark Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Check out this thread… Springs have been delivered (yesterday). As predicted, they are too long and need bending to suit. I’m in the process of doing that as we speak. I will report back on how I get on. cheers dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aardvark Posted August 8, 2021 Report Share Posted August 8, 2021 So springs are fitted and all the rattles have now disappeared. It is surprising how much the pads slightly moving in the callipers contributes to the overall rattles and squeaks when driving. For just over ten quid, I’d say that it’s been money well spent. cheers dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
