I have been hearing from the first day I own my 850 a slight metalic noise from the suspension when riding over bumps.

I have realized the noise comes from two small clips mounted in control A arms (one clamp in each arm). I reproduced the noise touching the clips with my hand. So it seems a minor problem because they are mounted correctly but with certain clearance (I dont know if it is normal) which produces the clicking noise.

And now the questions:

Is that clearance (and the noise) usual?
Which is the function of those small clips??? Can I remove them without consequences?

Thanks in advance.
