93 MX6 LS 5 speed NON ABS
I'm running Powerstop cross drilled rotors with axxis brake pads. The rear rotors have recently been shaved and new pads were installed about a month ago. Also the rear left caliper was replaced, it was locking up.
The problem is that whenever I brake, sometimes I hear a rather loud "clunck" when i come to a stop from about 25mph or above. It's a noise like metal hitting metal. This only happens when I brake. Sometimes, I hear a continous clunck when braking. Someting like "puck, puck puck puck".. gradualy slowing as the car slows down. my first thought was that I cracked a rotor. I ripped off all 4 wheels and carefully inspected all 4 brake systems. the rotors and pads seemed fine, no visual problems. I believe the noise is coming from the rear though I didnt hear any noise when I used my e-brake to slow down from 25mph. Also, th ecar seems to be braking in pulses. Meaning that when I press the brake slightly, it feels like it grabs and lets go, grabs and lets go etc. like if th erotors were warped even though th erear ones were just shaved.
I'm trying to find out if it's a rotor problem or maybe something else like the brake lines or the fluid. I still havent checked the fluid but will today. Help me out guys, with the winter snow coming, I'd hate not to have brakes while driving in the snow...
