Default Wtf?

I have a 2004 Accord 4 dr. Whenever I put it in reverse, I hear like 2 to 3 good noticable clicks coming from the front somewhere within the suspension. Anyone know what it could be?
Also, for some odd reason when I apply the brakes, some times the whole front suspension jiggles. This is ALL stock, and the car was bought used.
Thank you

Takoon

I think so, I got it from the Honda dealership and I haven't had it for that long. Would they charge me to look at it as well as fix what's happening?
Just out of curiousity, what is happening, if you know. Thanks man.

I freaking hope not. I'm starting to hear it a lot now. Today when I pulled up into work, I threw it in reverse, heard the noises, and then put it in drive, and it made the noises again. So now it's doing it both on drive and reverse. It kind of sounds like it's coming from the left but the way sound echo's and stuff confuses me.

The brake rotors are out of balance if the front shimmy's to the left and right when braking. Have them turned and that will go away. Its caused from hard braking and possible overheating of the break pads,expecially in water or when they get wet. Its not covered by any warranty that I know of. Its general maintenance(Not covered)

it hasn't happened in a while, I took the car in about a week or two ago and they sanded the discs some.... I guess that was my fault, I have a heavy foot. would it be better if I changed them to slotted discs? thanks for looking out on that man
