Hope you can help, the first issue is:
1. A strange noise coming from my front right brake when breaking, doesn't happen when im stood still and pump the brakes, the best way to describe the sound is like a ratchet getting tighter the harder i push the pedal.
2. A clunking/knocking noise only when i go over large bumps or potholes,
Please help

I have a clunk on the front, I took it back the day after purchase. They replaced all bushes & drop links, anti roll links etc and said it was a dry bush, it improved massively but was always still there, now gets worse every time I drove over a speed bump or similar, even going 5-10mph.

To add, the conclusion vaux came to was I dry bush somewhere.

It's not a case of the brake pads being seized in the carrier or the caliper slide pins being seized??

I give up on the brake issue, unless the noise is not brakes and maybe a suspension bush problem....
I'll assume both noises came at different times?? Knock will more than likely be a roll bar link, unless there is a broken spring, but have yet to see any J's with broken springs, yet!
