Thumping noise while braking ...

Hey guys ... I am starting to hear a thumping noise when I am braking. Has anyone else seen this problem? I can't tell if its coming from the front or the back of my car, but it sounds like its coming from the right side. I notice the thumping mostly right before I am come to a complete stop. It could be happening at high speeds but I can't hear over the road noise ... Thanks

Re: Thumping noise while braking ...

It sounds like your brake caliper .For your sake, hope you just need
some brake fluid .....I had to purchase a brake drum$$$$$$$ A bad brake drum means you could be riding with just one brake pad
stopping your Max. Be prepared to hand you wallet over!
