anti rattle clips
I looked at the front brakes today.
Initially the wheel spun only 1/2 a turn, and stopped very quickly. The pads were locked in by the anti seize compound and not able to move freely. I removed the compound and installed the drag reduction clips in the proper manner, but they were flimsy, causing immediate drag and not working as expected. I took them off, removed the anti rattle clips, and the pads were completely free.
The wheel now spins 2 full turns, and the car appears to coast better than it did.
