Hello all, I just noticed a rattle from the right front wheel on my 03 highlander awd v6 w/40K miles. Upon taking the wheel off, the brake pads seem about 1/2 worn, and I can move the outer pad enough such that it can make a metallic contact rattle w/caliper and seems the source of the rattle I have heard. I believe one of the anitrattle clips is missing, is this normal to happen? I assume I will have to get these off of the dealer.
also, when I decide to replace the pads, what brand of brake pads do you recommend? Are there better ones out there than OEM? thanks
