Rear brake pads changed a few months back. After a while I started to notice a slight rattle that goes when under acceleration and braking. Q: Does the ap 2 pot rear callipers have anti rattle clips or are the clips supplied with the pads.
Some advice please as the noise is starting to cheese me off.

There are little springs that basically push the pads apart and away from the discs.

These stop them rattling but the springs break.

Thanks for the replies. The return springs are still there but maybe they have lost their tension.I'll give them a little stretch. just thinking of Gazzabs post, hopefully that will work. Just hope I don't find myself beading silicone every other weekend.
cheers.

Put Silicone on the pistons and in the corners of the caliper, let it go off,
Does the trick on mine.
