jlbsam Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 I know this topic has been discussed previously. I have even brought it up once. but I have never gotten a complete answer. Just went for a ride in my 90 red vert. car runs nice, the only thing that detracts from the ride is the constant rattle noise from the brakes. There has to be a simple solution to this problem and I hope a fellow forum member can provide it. Thanks-Jim in San Diego Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Some Reatta owners have reported that this brake hardware kit will stop the brake rattle. I've never needed them so I can't confirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlbsam Posted November 8, 2016 Topic Author Share Posted November 8, 2016 Surely there must be someone else who can provide some wisdom on this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVES89 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 It is one of two things and both were discussed. Caliper clips or sway bar bushings. You should have your mechanic take a look and explain what he sees... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ Ron Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 I recently watched an episode of "Car Fix". They advised to always install new anti rattle clips when doing a disk brake pad replacement. The old ones can be broken, bent or cracked. They stated that this will eliminate the problem.
