ORIGINAL: buickboy

I have a 08 bob and notice a clunk when i use the front brakes usally on the first time is that what you talking about?
Not the same clunk. What you are hearing is your front floating rotors. If you hear another clunk, usually when you get on the front brake kind of hard then you have issues.

There's another post about this and they describe the noise as&nbsp\\;"the clunk a trailer hitch makes". That is a perfect description. I'm glad I could make more people aware of this issue.
