When driving in parking lots and I have my window down I can hear something up front clicking, not real sure where to start since I'm completely unfamiliar with suspension.

The car is a stock 93 cobra

Any help/input is appreciated

Thanks guys

Outside of the obvious trash/road debris stuck in the rotor area, it's possible a Wheel bearing is on it's way out or something's going on with the brake pads/caliper.

Yeah after driving it more today, I noticed alot of noise when going over bumps on the road. And then when I come to a stop light a loud click right when I stop. Wheel bearings?

I would first rule out the brake components by taking off the wheel and inspecting/cleaning everything. Then you will know more and report back to us [Smile]
