Alright so pretty much everytime I apply the brakes I hear a single, rather loud "click" coming from underneath the car, almost as if something isn't aligning right. If I push down on the rear suspension after I turn the car off I hear a "clunking" sound on the first couples pushes, then it stops. Rotors were replaced last Sunday, but this was happening long before that. I would say it started doing this about 1.5-2k ago.

Any ideas?

is the click from the front.
caliper bushings or worn ball joints

More towards the back from what my ear can discern.

I was parking today on a slope and after I put my ebrake on and took my foot off the brake, I heard the click rather loudly, definately something with the brakes, I will see what some new caliper bushings do for it.

Mine is from the front left wheel. The pads seemed snug when I took them apart. Haven't replaced the bushings yet or checked the ball joints. Its one loud 'CLICK' which is embarrasing.

It was the brake pads. Replaced them and the single 'click' is gone.
