RE: front suspension noise

Unbelievable ! Took the problem below to a garage to look it, and guess 
what it was ? The brake pads ! The anti-rattle spring was not put in 
correctly (only 1/2 of the spring behind the caliper). Never knew a brake 
pad could make such a noise!

P.S. The pads were 'installed' at an Audi dealership (don't known which 
one)

think my main suspect is the anti-roll bar. Has anyone experienced 
something similar ?
