the noise would sound like banging a hammer into a piece of metal. its a noticeable sound when i am rolling and press the brakes or going slow. I cant tell if it makes the noise at high speeds since it blends it with other noises...i live in manhattan so no winter or cold weather froze anything, its hot as hell here right now...dealer in the city is a complete asshole which is why most times i drive an hour to another dealer for service but i am in a tight schedule and had to go to city dealer for service. my account rep there claims its a break in period. I never know of this....i just dont want my brakes to go out. Car seems to stop fine for now and i am not that car savvy so i dont know. its a thumping noise. maybe something is lose???

thanks again
Sounds like a brake pad that came lose on one end....when you brake the
pad hits into the claw...bounces back and repeats...
Only the top part of the brake pad is secured with a bolt...the bottom part stays in place
with a piece of metal and clambs into it......I don't know all the correct english words....so if it sounds
a bit dodgy....just go back and have it checked out....I'm quite sure that's the problem
