Anyone of your beloved Persona having rattling under carriage issues? I have an annoying front brake caliper that rattles. I claimed the caliper once before but it was alright for a while and after 3 months its back. Every single time i pass the yellow lines or those "cut" surface on the road, the front will emit "klok klok klok" noises.

I have it checked with a workshop and said that its quite a common issue for certain car models. The usual fix would be to take off the whole caliper and have the floating pin mount rebored a little, regrind a bit of the floating pin to retrofit additional rubber bushing. This would solve it for good.

But then when i asked around, seems like its not that common problem in Persona.

Any one of you guys facing the same issues?

Luckily for my wira I can buy second hand parts from Japan cheap and solved the rattling problem.
