What is the clicking noise from the front passenger area when I apply the brakes on my 1996 Cadiilac Eldorado?

Does it change when the brakes are applied? You might have very rusted and scaly front brake rotors. If this is the case the noise would change when brakes are applied

Could be broken wire.

unplug the engine mount. you will never know the difference if its plugged in or unplugged.

Model TCR11RR-SGKW brake

sounds like a brake pad warning clip is making contact with the rotor applying brakes presses pad and quiets the noise. have pad wear checked by mechanic.

could be wear indicator on brake pad. how many miles on car? how many since last brake job? need to pull wheel off and check pads. Is the noise from the front or rear? this is the first thing to check there could be other reasons but start here and eliminate the brakes or not. good luck

If I had to make a guess, I'll bet the noise is the wear indicators on your front brake pads just beginning to touch the rotors. If you remove the wheel, you should see a small metal tab on the rear of the pad. If it is very close to the rotor, replace the front pads. I've seen lots of people just bend the tab back to stop the noise, but if you do that it's almost guaranteed that you will forget 'till the rotors are all scored up. So, do it now!!

If your C/V joint is going bad it will make a nasty clicking sound and get louder the longer you leave it unattended.If this noise went away it could have been something stuck it the moving area of your wheel and just worked itself out.Keep an ear out for the noise to return,it it dosen't come back be happy.

Front seating area, driver side, under dash, mounted on passenger side of steering column.

struts bearings could be worn,does make a noise that comes from the front end when you hit a bump?
