brake thump
posted this on mymbonline but no responce so far and Im sure people here know more about our cars so....
I was just going back from my friend and noticed something weird was goin on with my car while applying brakes
it doesnt happen every single time but basically it feels like Im going over a bump on the road when Im not
I apply the brakes and just before the car stops It does it, it does it only once and not every single time like I said
also it sounds like I have a ball in the trunk, know what I mean? when I brake the ball rolls forward and hits the back seats, thats what it sounds like but not as loud
my back brakes had about 15% left on them when I bought the car about 1-2 months ago, Im hoping its oly the brakes

It could be your brakes I remember when my rear brakes when out they were makin some kind of grindin noises and checked out to be my rotors and no brake pad left only the metal.
But worse case scenario could be bushings or suspension.
However Im having the same thump noise on my front right wheel only when I back up and I got it checked and turns out to be control arm bushing. These are common on the 36s but dont knw bout the 43s.
