caliper noise

Recommended Posts

I've just installed a set of Hawk HPS pads ( a huge improvement over stock ) and now, every time I hit a bump I get clanking noises from the brakes (brakes are stock).

 

I took the wheels off and re-tigtened everything, I've done numerous brake jobs before so I'm not new to this.

 

Even with everything tightened down, there's still play in the caliper.

 

What gives? :confused:

how much play are we talking here? Need to be a little bit more exact on something like this. I have had a little noise come from mine after the install.

 

Hawk HPS and stock rotors. But it eventually went away in time. Did you re-use those brakets off of the 0ld pads? if so might want to check and make sure they are seated properly.

 

But a bump for more information.

OTM.

Sorry I didn't mean to start a war which mainly forum people is all about ;).

The only thing I used from the old pads were the backing plates.

 

Which brackets are you talking about? The new pads and the old ones looked identical, except for the backing plates, which I reused.
