I can't seem to find them in the partsmanual either.
Even more surprising is that the rattle isn't the pads rattling
against the cilinders or rotor, but on the retaining pins. >>
My car does not have the front anti rattle shims. It seems I was the first to
disassemble the front calipers so I suspected this was OEM. I could have used
them though since I had a noticable rattle. Cured the rattle with Permatex
Disc Brake Quiet, both on the pads as instructed and on the pins where they
enter the caliper.
