Thanks for responding Ken, I don't remember seeing a good spot to place that clip between the caliper and pad? Did I miss something? A diagram or photo would work wonders for me right now!

Thanks for the Intel Nate, Since the brake job was fairly recent it has plenty of grease. I am surfing the net right now to try and find out where the larger clips should be placed. It's definately loose pads. They are snug but not tight enough to stop the bumping against the caliper when...

Thanks for the reply Quik (btw your LS is kick ass!) When I initially installed the kit the noise went away but then came back after a couple of miles so these clips have got to be the answer to the noise. I'll go aheal and install them when those new pads get in.

Ok I see that now....I assume I clip them to the pads somehow?

Ok, so I bought a Raybestos Brake Hardware kit becuase I was hearing some noise after changing all 4 brakes/rotors (well the dealership changed them) but I did have to go back and install this hardware kit myself :) . So this kit comes with eight small clip and I have no clue where they go. (see...

3 liter is actually a luxury for them over here most stick with 2.0-2.5 liters. And yes I have an 01 it only has 45K on it....runs like a scalded dog and I am extremely impressed with the my sports sedan......Still need to tackle the handling at high speeds but was reading it gets bumpier with...

Auto Beep Delay Obviously people don't read from your book......Point is most of those engine's don't have the same output as the LS. Drivers on the AUTOBAHN are rude if you don't move out of the way. I get out of their way by accelerating and leaving them behind "in the dust" is just a...

I have been seriously considering new wheels and am thinking about 18's more so for looks than performance. I ran into an issue with the LS in which it has alot of torque so the RWD is terrible in the icy/snow condition even with traction control. This was my first winter here in Germany with...

You definately have to watch your rearview because they seem like they are far away but traveling in excess of 130 they are haulin and show up to your back door real quick! I am thinking about putting that eibach suspension on it because I think that's the advantage those cars have at that...

I was thinking the same thing but didn't want to offend!

Yeah well thanks for the help!

Auto Beep Well the dust usually has them back about 30 feet until I simmer off at about 130. That's when I usually feel my point has been made.....

It does it with the switch being on or off......

Hi All, I've seen pretty much all the problems everyone has mentioned and I am still in Love with my 01 LS because it leaves the Audi's, BMW's, and Mercs in the dust when I get on all 8 on the German autobahn. This one is a new problem and my dealer can't figure it out without taking it all...
