noises coming from my car when braking

I have noticed a clunking sound on the front left hand side of the car when I brake. It doesn’t happen all the time, mostly when I have to brake suddenly or when I am braking & turning or going in/out of driveways and over speed bumps.

That's not much to go on, but assuming that you have checked the pads and calipers and all is good, then perhaps the problem is in the strut cap. They wear and 'clunk'.

why did you make two threads within 10 minutes of each other? Make a video of the clunk? if possible.
