Default Anyone else have rattling brake pads?
I can only hear it with the windows down. It will stop if I tap the brakes. Annoying as hell but not worth changing pads. Wonder if that stuff that you use for brake squeal will help?

Default Ohh, the clamp that's on the caliper. Hmmm, I guess I can check that. Damn, I'm getting lazy
in my old age.
