Exclamation Brakes clunk and slip then fine???

Hey everyone,

iv been on youtech for a few months and cant find anyone with my problem....

sooo when i brake most times the peddle feels great, then a few pumps down the road it will be firm then slip and makes a weird clunk from the front..... this is really bugging me, iv bled the system, and there are no leaks......any info would be helpfull. thanks

What shape are you pads/calipers in? Everything bolted tight? You sure the clunk is coming from the breaks?

Sounds to me like a booster/master leak somewhere or loss in vacuum?
