Hi There. I had a 'tinkle' sound when breaking after having the pads replaced. It developed to the point where it would sound when driving over a bump or uneven surface. The garage reported that this happens when the mechanic doesn't apply 'Copperstop' to the back of the pad & it rattles against the caliper. Another garage changed the pads again & the problem was solved with the Copperstop theory apparently a load of tosh!

Cheers
