GypCeiling noise issue using Gypframe MF9 Connecting Clips

I think I should have used wafer head jack-point screws to connect the MF5 bars to the MF7 bars as in the video link here.

I used Gypframe MF9 Connecting Clips and when you walk on the floor above, or open and close the door, the ceiling squeaks a lot! 

 

Anyone else had an issue with this and know of a solution. I can't easily use screws now the ceiling below is up. Can I screw them in from above? Or use some rubber insulation between the clips and the MF7?

 

Many thanks

Thanks so much for this. Excuse my ignorance but do you mean just spray a foam around the clip? What sort of foam? Many thanks

It’ was a pretty common problem when the clips where widely used 

Just foam up around the offending clips

Yes just spray some fire foam (Pink)

Or even a blob of silicone It just cushions the clip
