They have just been changed.

Just had one rear wheel off to have a look and the arrow was pointing upwards haven't checked otherside yet
But rattle is really loud but then if you keep brake on lightly rattle goes completely so must be pads can't believe that they would make so much noise

This the rattle you thought was the exhaust?

Hi Neil yer I thought it was exhaust but appears to be coming from the rear calipers have been told that they do do this sometimes and should clear itself in time

now lee that's really spooky because there's a black steel tubing pipe which I think is the brake line that runs up and bends around a corner which when pulled it springs back and forth and is one of my rattles I'd cable tied it and that sorted that one
But the pad Rattle is defiantly still there Also the heat shield above the back boxes both sides judder over bumps and I'd self tapped them flat that solved that ok
