[s-cars] Clunking Noise...Brake Pad?

[Cody Payne]

Found IT!!!  Notice what is not "clipped" on the brake pad assembly.

That clip that is not clipped behind the caliper can make a very noticable "clunk" noise when driving over small bumps particularly at slow-med speeds....drove me nutz ;-)

	Gents,
	     Well I have tracked down the noise that has been driving me crazy for the past 2 weeks.  It is the left front inside brake pad.  But I am not sure how to fix this?   The pads were replaced but maybe they are the "exact" correct size?  Almost seems like they need a very small "shim" to keep them from very slightly moving 2mm  The odd thing is that the right front brake does NOT have the same issue.
