On the Rimmer website there's a video showing how to change the front brake pads on a TD6. The pad that sits against the piston has got some springy clips that hold it to the piston. Just got a set of Mintex pads to fit and those springy clips are not present. Just want to make sure that that is not a problem …?

Thanks.

i just bought pads for mine-i think there are two types[not inc the brembos] one has ears with little anti rattle shims-the other has the big clips you describe...i may be wrong and havent fitted mine as yet

To th OP - re_use the spring clips that are already there. They aren't normally supplied with new pads. John

OK, so it looks like the front brakes changed for the 6A VIN. The Rimmer video shows the pre-6A version. Looks like I've got the correct parts - looking at my brakes with a torch through the wheel slots, I've got the 2 spring clips per side, and there are two bolts to remove the calliper carrier each side - two pairs of replacement bolts came with the pads.
