I did put brand new (new off eBay) ones on a couple of months ago. I found even the new ones on the bottom of the calliper were loose once fitted. The bottom ones do not have the rubber shim but rather a slither cut off the side of the pin. I packed it with grease and put a shim from a coke can around it and was sure it made a difference after driving but could have been placebo.

I will have a play again this weekend, could be that the shim has come out - I Will try and put the old top pins in the bottom as they didn't appear to have anything wrong with the rubber band.
