knock/clonk when braking

bear with me guys, when applying the brake for the 1st time each time i press the pedal down, theres a 'clonk' or knock from, I think, the front of the RR somewhere? If you're approaching a corner and press the brake pedal 3 or 4 times to slow, it only clonks the 1st time, any ideas?

Granted, not much help, but thought I'd see if anyone suggests where to look first? It doesnt sound like a heavy 'metal on metal' knock (not like a driveshaft or prop on the underside of the body), sounds lighter or more tinny

Hoping that makes at least a bit of sense.............. Rolling Eyes

Obviously, there is not a lot to go on, but it could be a loose caliper bolt, a control arm bushing, sway bar end link, etc. There could be a myriad of other loose bolts on various suspension or chassis components that could transmit a noise and as the weight shifts from the braking it only occurs the one time until resettling where it would do it again upon braking. But if you only notice the noise upon braking, you want to look at braking components first.

I know it isn't a lot of help, but maybe someone else has more thoughts. 2011 Range Rover Autobiography
