Lee GZ Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Hi Guys, Posted a couple of days ago because i was getting a knocking noise at the front of my sup. got loads of feedback cheers: Subframe bolts need a tighten Droplinks Track rod ends Now having a better look thinking it’s none of the above, happens when i go over a bump or kick either of the front wheels and the noise seems to be around the brake calliper area..? i did have my pads changed about 6 weeks ago and the noise isnt there if i apply the brakes then get someone to kick the wheel. Now i popped down to see Mr T today just to ask if they new what it could be and the chap i spoke to seems to think the shim plates haven't been put back on, apparently I should of removed them of the old pads..? Does this sound right..? He never took the wheels off or anything, just a quick look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Rob_ Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 you should put the shims back on or buy new when changing brake pads. you can see the clip of the shim over the edge of brake pad from outside the caliper. he may have been taking a guess if he didnt get down to the floor and have a look at the caliper.

Lee GZ Posted July 12, 2006 Author Share Posted July 12, 2006 Cheers Rob, I have already told Toyota to order me some, its a bit of a pain because i didn’t fit them my self paid some chap at a garage £30 cash to quickly shove them on..! Another problem i have now is i got my sup serviced 3 to 4 weeks ago also and i think the bloke i got to do it has lost the facia plate key for my wheels..! I can get them off but it’s just a pain to do, anyone know where i could lay my hands on a replacement ..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
