Unhappy

Took a mate for a steady drive this evening turned down a side road in second and put my foot down in second and then changed into third and got some major judder(got a ap 4 paddle so used to a little bit) about 100 metres up road i had slowed down and all of a sudden there was was this clattering noise.

I pulled over and couldn't see a thing, the noise deffo appeared to be coming from the right hand side of the car, the wheels are tight as is the caliper, I pulled off and didn't get anymore noise, then it appeared and dissapeared just as quick, lasting about 2 sec,s

Has any one a clue what it can be, The noise was really metallic, I thought the pins that hold the pads had come out and caught on the wheel but they are all fine

Am going to get the car on a ramp tomorrow and have a look but has this happened to any one else?

What a TIT, just been to my garage,opened the bonnet and the bonnet stay had popped out of it's holder and was resting on the AC pump, AM thinking with the vibration it popped out and hit the pump.

Just took it out for a spirited drive and all is well, so got my fingers crossed at the moment
