Default S Type rear brakes help needed

hey guys just did the rear pads on my 06 stype 3.0 last week. Since then they have been tapping like crazy. I bought the pads from a quality auto parts store, not a jag dealer. Any reason for these things to be tapping? ive been doing my own brakes for 10 yrs(always got my pads @ this parts store) & never had a single prob til i touched this jag. any suggestions? thanks

Tapping? Not sure what that means? I know a lot of newer pads come with shims on them, were those on the pads you installed?

yea, like a light tap/knock noise as if the pads had play in them. when i apply the brakes, it goes away. what do you mean by a shim on them? im tryin to think back if there was anything on the new pads.hmm

Blackjag06, welcome to the forum.

Might I suggest that you follow forum protocol and place an introduction of yourself in the "New Member Section". This will allow you full access to the site, lots more benefits.

Check this thread out it may be of some help:
https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/s...ewed-up-53653/

**EDIT** In the above post besure to look at page four (4), for the pin circled in red that was not seated into the piston slot correctly.

If you cannot view pictures let me know, again you may have to go to the New Member Section.

Also please put your vehicle details in your signature. Very easy to do, go to "UserCP" upper left on any site page then cleck "Edit Signature" and "Save"
