When braking from low speeds I am getting a fairly loud pop or snap sound from the front of the car, it may actually be from the brakes but I am not sure.

I can reproduce it fairly easily in a parking lot as it happens at very low speeds <5mph.

Anyone else hear this?

I now think this is in the suspension and not brake related.

Brakes are perfect when slamming them 100 plus to make an exit off the highway.

I notice if I hit the gas hard and make the rear squat at low speeds when I hit the brake and make the front dive I get the sound.

I can do it over and over pretty much.

It almost sounds like a spring popping into place or something.

Take it to the dealership and have them sit in the car with you and show them what its doing. Let them figure it out.

You need to take it to the dealer. But if I can remember correctly I believe I heard one of the guys who worked at ford this weekend at a mustang car show say that the 2011's have 2 tsb's one for front bushings making pop/clunk sounds and second for a clutch issue on the manuals.
