rattling calipers
I have a 1988 a4 coupe that I recently installed cross drilled rotors, new pads and ss braided lines. Everything works well except now the calipers on the front rattle like crazy unless I'm applying the brakes. I also hear the calipers engage when applying the brakes. I've seen in some cases o-rings on caliper retention bolts to eliminate noise, do vettes have something similar? I didn't notice anything like that but maybe with age they became dry and came off. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Two of the hardware kits would be needed. The pin was very worn on mine.
