"clunk" sound when braking...
i recently got new rear pads and rotors, same pads for front as they are still good and turned the front rotors. brakes work good so i think.. i noticed that now everytime i brake to a stop i would hear like a "clunk" sound when completely stopped. this is just normal driving and stopping. i am not speeding before coming to a stop and jamming on my brakes by no means.....if i come to a stop extremely slowly ( not reallyt normal) then i don't hear it. any ideas if this is a concern?
thanks |
id have to hear the clunk to determine what it is. But I would check the front end for sure.

Funny enough, I had this similar experience and it turned to by my horn support broke off, so the horn was dangling by the wire and when I braked hard, it swong and bang on the rebar; when I brake at a slow speed, it did not touch.
I am not sure how 94 Civic is like, may not be the case, but I guess anything is possible before you did a full examination. |
keep in mind that it was OK for the first 2 days after replacing the brakes and i started hearing this. not sure if something could have came loose. i jsut don't want my brakes to stop working or wheel coming off.. lol.. (knock on wood)

brakes dont cause clunks.
|
brakes don't have play in them to be clunking around like that unless you have the wrong pads. like chris said, bring it to a shop and get the front end checked out.
|
doing that tomorrow.. thanks

sounds like one of the sliders is sticking. Do you lube them when you did your brakes, its quite common usually if the sliders get dry.
