In the past I heard a rattle by the right front wheel. On checking I found the retaining clip/spring for the pads was missing. Clip apparently holds pads stationary within caliper. Got a new one and and it was quiet again. Then over time I guess the clip stretched and the noise returned. Mostly heard while going over a bump. Again got a new one, but noise did not go away this time. Is there a trick I am missing? Thanks in advance.
