Technical click click

[Big Black Stilo]

i have a loud click click coming from the front end under braking, doesnt appear to be anything wrong with driveshafts as they dont make a noise on pulling off forwards or in reverse.

It oonly does this click when braking and the front end drops and bounces on the suspension, but i cant get it to make the noise when bouncing the car

any ideas?

warped disk or possibly a hairline crack in one of them, is it similar repetition as when you get a stone in the tread and it taps??

noope, no repetition at all, its only clicking when the nose dips

You sure it's not the one thing you shouldn't need reminding about (I think you still have oem springs don't you) ?

not on OEM springs on the drivers side, but i have had a look at passenger side and all looks ok on that front

Checked your wheel nuts?

 

[Big Black Stilo]

all checked.

moved it this morning and its stopped doing it, it was a lot cooler than the other day.
The click has been replaced with a groan, wis leads me to suspect possible sticking shock absorber.

However car is now unmovable after the outer skin of the back box finally came off whilst reversing off the drive this morning but is stuck on by about 3" of metal that needs sawing/grinding so i can remove it.
