Parking brake issue
My car has developed an annoying rattle when going over bumps. After taking apart the rear brake I saw that part # 109 referred to as "expansion lock" in the documentation is loose and rattling about. Anyone know how I should approach this?
The parking brake adjustment under the rear seat seems pretty tight. The expansion lock is only loose on the right side.

2002 Benz C240
i have the same issue, mine started last week when i went to look at some rims, I used the lug nuts that the guy said he used on his benz. But when I test drove my car with the rims on it i heard a clicking popping sound. When I took the tires back off my car started making a squealing rubbing sound after 5 mins. of driving. It still does it off and on. So Im sure it was from the lug nuts. Any ideas would be great. Also I ordered a 15mm wheel adaptor any suggestion on what length bolt I should use.
