Just had all new Pads and disks fitted to my Impreza WRX blobeye (05) but when i collected it, the mechanic said there was a plate missing that goes on top of the caliper which supposidly stops the pads from rattling on the front passenger side. Looks like the previous owner replaced the pads and forgot to put this part back on. I've been told its fine to drive but maybe worth trying to get one.

My question is..... does anyone know what the hell this part is called and where i can get 1 from???

 

Cheers people.

Normally called anti rattle clips or shims. Depending on what it looks like. Sometimes can be springs. Maybe worth having a word with your local motor factors.

Some places do a kit for just the shims and springs, did you buy oem pads ? Normally come complete with all the clips. Give subaru a ring and see at least if not you may b abl to get a part number

Yes, i think he said it was an Anti Rattle clip that was missing. The pads are Mintex. I'll give Subaru a call and see if they know. Thanks

Had the same problem with mine well one came off not sure where :) Can get them on eBay mate about £14 I think I paid for a full front set with the little wire thing and push in bolt things. I don't know if they have names :)

Do you know what to search for on eBay? I searched for subaru impreza anti rattle and no brake related things came up! I don't even know where to start looking.
