Front Pads rattling in Calipers,ARGHHHHH
 

Hi

I recently fitted a new set of Bilstein Discs and pads to front of my 94 Coupe V6.

After a 1000 miles or so,I get the pads going tick tick tick in the calipers as if they are loose.

How can I cure this,its never happened to me on any other car.

Also,the rear discs and pads are new.Last week I fitted these.I found out the hard way abotu pushing hard while winding in the pistons on rear calipers..

Took the car out and straight away I noticed she was no longer pulling to the left.So,I deduced the nsr caliper had been seized.Thing is,with this particular side,I had taken out pads down to the metal so I stripped and rebuilt the whole caliper,taking out the piston,cleaning,lubeing and refitting.

Can anyone advise as it doesnt seem theres much else that can cure this other than fitting new calipers.

A friend of mine had this rattling on a late Golf after he'd put new pads in. They were pattern part pads (don't know what brand). He put some genuine pads in and they didnt' rattle.
