Break rattle in the rear

[hitmachine101]

hey guys, M3 95

got a annoying break rattle in the back, and its constant when im driving, know its coming from the break clips because when i apply the breaks it goes away

the only thing i can think of is that some of my bushings back there must be SHOT

so where are the bushings and what ones should i replace before i have to screw my alignment up and go after the trailing arms bushings,,, ( i think these bushings are fine)

thanks guys

I would check the brake pads first. Your description sounds like they are rattling. Put some anti-squeal on them and see if the noise goes away or changes.

If the rattle sound more like suspension then check the RSM's at the top of the shocks.

The spring clips get week from heat and the pads rattle sometimes. I had to replace mine to stop it. Had to get them from the BMW stealer.
