Loud CLUNK sound solved Posted by Randy Thatcher [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() |
I redid ball joints and tie rod end on the right side of my car a few weeks back, then got an alignment. So soon after a "CLUNK" sound started on bumps... I figured something wasn't tightened down enough, so I got in to check the hub nut, ball joints, tie rod end, and caliper. I checked the caliper last, like a moron. The inside brake pad clip/spring doo-dad was peeking out. It was bent due to poor re-installation. I pulled it out, bent it back, and put it all back together the right way, now it's good again.
Just a little FYI. I should have been a bit more careful during re-assembly, and luckily it turned out to be a minor problem with an easy fix.
The convertible sure beats the 2002 Ford Taurus i had as a rental car for the last 6 days. 800 miles of uncomfortable seats and the worlds worst automatic transmission.
