If i reach through the spokes of my rims and grab the top of the caliper (floating part), I can wiggle it up and down and it makes a slight clank noise.

are my slide / guide pins worn out causing play?

if i'm coming to a stop light and hammer the brakes at slow speed i get a shudder through the car.

thanks!.

They're cheap, replace them, sounds like it's time.

bbarbulo

it's not normal

I wasn't sure, i replaced both of them about... ummm... 5 years ago. Guess there's a good chance that it's time again huh. Shame, all the sliders and everything move freely.

Not my video, but this is pretty much what mine are doing...

bbarbulo

mine don't do that... well only right after i retracted the pistons in order to change the pads or something. as soon as I apply the brakes the first time it goes (and stays) tight.

so new calipers it is then... lame.

driver side is much worse than passenger side. i think i'll do the one and then see how that goes. if it's tight tight like you claim, i will do the other side.
