Hi all, whenever I go over pot holes or even slightly rough road I get a rattle from the front? This completley goes away with just the slightest pressure on the brake pedal, which make me believe its the pads at the front? Ive had the wheel off and the pad will move in the caliper if you prod it. What is going on here?Thanks for any advice, Tom |

I have no idea as ive not touched them before, maybe I should take them out and re-fit them. Is there anything I should look for that could be missing? Springs..clips? |

springs are attached to the pads, my feeling would be more towards wheel bearings.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Ive had two callipers now where the sliders have worn and the calliper has rattled on the carrier. Take the wheel off and see if you can move the calliper about at all. If so, new sliders time. |

Depends of the rattle only occurs at a certain speed and whether you pushing the brake is taking it out if that area________________________________________ Ex- Phase 3 China GTi-6 T-Reg |
