The right front caliper clunks and rattles over bumps. There is noticeable movement of the caliper when I try to wiggle it. After taking off the caliper cylinder I can notice play of the sliding guide pins in the retainer bushings. So my diagnosis was new retainer, pins looked OK.
Ordered new retainer from Volvo but I have pretty much the same sloppines of the pins in the new retainer.

Question: How much play or slop is normal when then pins are inserted, should it be an absolutely perfect fit or is a bit of slop normal.

Anyone Know a source for the pins alone?
