NQSBBK Brake pads moving in the calipers?

[DanBoy]

Has anyone whose fitted the NQSBBK had any issues where the brake pads are moving in the caliper, if so how did you solve the issue??

You mean a knock when braking first time either forwards or backwards?

What pads are you using?

Yea that's it, I've got Textar pads fitted on them at the moment, the garage has just fitted my set up and mentioned it to me.

TBH... is happens with some pads. My brother on his clio RS or Megane (cant remember which it happened on now) had the same problem with some pads.

Maybe try a different brand of pad.

Do the NQSBBK calipers have pad runners/guide? (cant remember their correct name)

I've just checked on my Porsche look up and the Boxsters don't have the vibration plates that the 911's seem to have, I'll have to look into what other brands I can sort.

Just picked it up and tbh I can't hear the noise when you have the stereo on, but I'll probably uprate the discs and pads at a later date so hopefully it will sort the issue.

Hello Danboy,
What you need are anti-squeal / rattle shims for 36 & 40mm pistons.
You can find them on Eurocarparts and manually search under Porsche 911 3.4 litre, cira 90's build, they are approx £9 each and you'll need 4.
recently fitted these brakes., they are great!
