Hey all!
Recently I installed a set of the Hawk HPS pads in the front. It seems that now I have a rattling sound coming from either the calipers or from the pads themselves (everytime I hit a bump I hear it...
I know it's most likely either of those 2 because if I'm going over some bumps and I put the brakes on, it does NOT rattle. I've checked the bolts holding the calipers, they're tight. What else could it be?? Anyone have any ideas? I thought maybe the pads themselves were doing it, but wouldn't the piston hold the pads firmly to the rotors, even if you aren't braking? Appreciate any advice given on what else I can do to stop this REALLY annoying sound!
Thanks
TB
