Ok a bit of a strange one..
I've noticed a very metallic rattling noise when going over bumps which my mechanic correctly diagnosed the front brake pads as the culprit. If I press the brake pedal when going over bumps it does not occur. When the car is stationary, I can move the pads with my hand with not much force. I have attached a picture to give an idea of where the pads are able to move - there is too much play between the pad and the carrier?
Has anyone else come across this?
I rang eurocarparts where I bought the pads back in March (Pagid 101600168) and they said they were definitely the correct pads for my car. The noise is really starting to bug me since the rest of the car is really solid so I think I'm going to have to try a different pad manufacturer. It only started to occur in the past two months maybe because the pads have wore down a bit more but there is still tons of life left on them, it’s a pity to throw them off so soon.
