Clanking noise comin from front end of car

When backing into my garage spot as of late... I have been noticing a clanking noise coming from the front end of my car... It happens when I go go to fix my parking job, shift the car into drive and then back into reverse... I hear the clank happen as the car begins to move back and as then as I bring the car forward... any ideas? Suspension?

I've had this same exact issue and attributed it to the brakes but haven't had it checked out. Anyone know what's up?

That has happened to me before I think it may be a caliper sticking or something I had the same problem on my beemer. It just started happening on the clk coinciding with my brakes squeeking. I just had new pads put on a 3 months ago and my rotors are good. I am going to spray some brake parts cleaner on them and see if it still happens. you should do the same I'm gonna do it tomorrow so I'll let you know.
