I changed the brakes all the way around and I still hear a rattling sound when I drive. It stops when I stop. What is that sound??

  1. Changed the pads but didn't install new anti-rattle clips. rattle is pads vibrating against calipers....

    Either tat or something other than the brakes, is rattling.....


  2. It sounds to me like you forgot to put back the "anti-rattle spring", it does exactly what it says, it keeps the pads from rattling back and forth when you dont have the brakes applied. Depending on how the caliper is designed you might have to take them back off to install the springs.

  3. so first thing is find the noise.. remove that wheel and check... your work.... might be a dust cover might be a loose bolt

  4. The disc pads could be loose. Depending on what car it is it should either have springs or clips to stabilize the pads.

    Good luck. h

  5. question is way too vague. next time give the make and year of the car. could be bad or missing hardware. also some vehicles you have to bend the tabs on the brake pads. if you dont it will do exactly what you are describing.
