was speaking to another tiv owner on sunday morning. he was saying similar things. something to do with larger holes on the pads and the pins not fitting snugly?snuggly? whatever,
anyway, so they rattled against each other, not sure if he used copper grease to solve this.

when someone that knows posts, could you PM me please?

just had mine done and i get a ticking noise - very slight knock - that increases with speed and disappears when I touch the brakes.

Have a look on the cerb forum seems like you have to stick them in with silicon, going to give it a try tonight hope it works cos i'm going to struggle at croft on wednesday if it don't.
