Title: Anybody able to help on this one please?
Post by: ckz on 21 March 2015, 15:35:01
right, just changed the rear Brake discs, Shoes and Pads on the Omega.
Reason, it was giving a reading between 3.5 and 4 on the Brake check and indication of wobble by braking.
also i was waiting of the Pads to go down which been grinding the last 2 days now.
it was Time to change, at least one Job done in 1 hour.

now i figured out why the rear left was oppsed up.
i bought the car like this and cjecjed the pads but they been new, never actually had the tyre of to check of this little monster.

this is missing.
i try to get one but seems they not available to  buy.
anybody got a spare one of them please?

I am looking for this kind of spring which holds the sliders in place and secures them.

I recall a post on here not so long ago with a link as where to get the anti rattle springs from.

I thought there were two different sizes depending on Caliper or Disc ? 

I am sure somebody will provide divine guidance to the link shortly  :y .................

No Al they are not vented I think. So you can get them from euro car parts, I have a set or two in the garage for my brothers 2.2 in the future, or even gay bay. If they are vented then dealer only.
