Might need the forum guys help on this if you've already experienced it. Can't seem to find the right results from the search function.
I have play in the rear calipers. My guess is thats either normal or abnormal. So if its abnormal I'm guessing this is the pins causing the pad to move, and i get some clunks. 1. Do I just regrease the slider pins? I noticed the top is not a bolt, didn't really look at it but if anyone has some insight how this is removed that would make me anticipate better but either way I can take a look at it. 2. Do I just get new calipers? which would solve the problem anyway. 3. Get new brake pads. 4. Buy new Pins and just replace it?

I also have some play on the rear calipers and my front right, but the front left one is tight. I experiencing clunking noises at the rear brakes too.
Check also if your pads are tight in the caliper. I have found that mine are tight on the outer sides but the have a lot of play at the piston sides, there is a spring that is visible from the inner sides you can move it and you might be able to replicate the clunk. |
