Sure can,
The noise was not there before the brake job.
I put new rotor and pads on and it showed up.
I then put new caliper on along with the new pad and rotor and its still there.
I noticed when I brake hard the click is louder than if I just brake normal.
No noise unless brakes are applied.
I did not put new caliper bolts in that is the only thing not new. They are tight though along with the lugs.
Also one other thing.
The clicking noise when I apply the brakes doesn’t just happen when I first apply them. When I apply the brakes and you start to slow it clicks as the wheel goes around. “Click…click…..click.”.. as its coming to a stop. Just thought I would mention that to. When you let up on the pedal the noise goes away. If you coast to a stop no noise only when applying the pedal and only on the driver side front. The passenger side front makes no noise has new pads and rotor.
Thanks

Thanks for the replies.
The bolts on the calipers are tight as I checked them a couple times.
The lug nuts are tight.
The slides seem to be in the proper position I will check them again today. They are new and came already inside the new caliper. This noise was the same with the new caliper and slides and with the old caliper and slides.
The rotors are brand new out of the box from Auto-zone. I bought the middle of the road ones (carbon)
If one of the pads is a bit small like stated how do I know and what is suggested? Do I leave them like this or purchase another set of pads swap them out and see if it goes away? Can I return the other set if this solves the problem?
Right now I have maybe 10 miles on the pads test driving them and will have about 50 total after today’s trip to work.
Thanks Again
