Clunking from Passenger Front Wheel

bbade · 08-27-2009, 04:35 PM

A little background, all of the suspension bushings were just replaced with SuperPro and the brake pads were replaced with Hawk HP+.

The clunking heard is not like that of worn bushings and all bushings are brand new so that variable can be eliminated.

When stopping I hear a strange "click/clunk" noise coming from the front of the car. I had a friend stand outside while stopping and we have pinpointed the noise as coming from the front passenger wheel area. The same friend hypothesizes that it might be something with the pistons in the calipers, could this be possible? Anyway if ya'll have any suggestions as to what to look for please let me know, I will try to get the car in the air later and post up any additional findings. Thanks!
