2019 Bullitt
I have a 2019 Bullitt, all stock. Ever since I re lubed my brake pads, I’ve been hearing a loud clunk when I first pull out of my parking spot as I use the brakes. I can kinda feel it hit on the clutch/brake pedals. After the clunk it doesn’t happen again until I let my car sit a long while. Since I’m not super versed in suspension issues, does anyone have a good starting place to check?

The brembo calipers are on secure, nothings up with the brake pads.

While turning? Or straight?

Stock front struts can clunk in cold weather when initially pulling out and turning. Not entirely sure why, but its normal. Going straight, well that would be a different issue. Warm weather, also a different pattern.

Does it also do it when you go in reverse and brake the first time? This is usually due to the brake pads moving slightly within the caliper as the rotor changes direction while the brakes are applied.
