8) :lol: :) :) Hi carlioll, diagram in the workshop manual shows outer shim/inner shim and a spring which looks like it pushes the pads towards the piston when brakes are off, this means that there is no take up when brakes are applied. Pretty sure that is the CLONK I hear when braking. Cheers Nibs

Thanks for replies, can I ask you carlioll where you purchased your front pads? You must have got the two shims shown in the workshop manual, I would be intrested as to wether the springs would come with the rears.
Cheers Nibs

Yes robdrinky you are correct there is a spring/shim arrangement, never had the springs and dont come with new pads, which are quiet when you first put them in, but when a little worn back comes the CLONK.
Cheers Nibs

Hi all, anyone know where I can obtain the springs for the rear brake pads? tired of hearing the clonk from the rear every time I brake. Summer is coming and I like to drive with the windows down.
Cheers Nibs

Hi ,did you remember to take off the oil filer cap? otherwise you just form a vacume, mine works in about 20mins,
Cheers Nibs

:) :lol: 8) Yep 4 screws the prise gently, 2 multi plug connectors then the binacle comes off. Check printed circuit board clean it, pull out the small bulbs as well then make sure when you put them back that good contact is made. Hopefully this will solve your problem. Good Luck Cheers Nibs
