I've just replaced my front discs & brakes after following an excellent guide on the forum.

However, I've noticed that when replacing the caliper on the drivers side, there's a part missing that IS on the passenger side caliper. (See picture below showing area I'm refering to)

It looks like it's some kind on tensioner. (a thin flexable metal). If it should be on there, can I get just that part, or must I replace the whole caliper?


Thanks for your help in advance, Gary.

Details: Fiat Scudo EL 1.9 2002. 257mm Disc with Bendix System pads.

I think that is an anti-rattle shim, should be available from a Motorfactors or Fiat at worst probably as a set.
