Clunk under car on brake and clutch

I get a clunk every once in a while on braking and clutch application. Is this normal? 2006 C4.

Probably not! A clunk can take many different places and causes. My initial check would be to make sure that all fasteners are tight on the brakes, trans mounts, and engine mounts. Also checking the trans and engine mounts for cracks and or leaking fluid will be important.

How many miles on your C4?? Any work done prior to you noticing the clunking??

You might also want to check the axle shaft bolts where it connects to the transaxle.

I just got it at 69,000 and change. Brakes were reported to have been done w/i last two years. I'll check all the mounts, pivot points, and cv joints. Thank you.
