Default clicking calipers going over road bumps normal?

There is a clicking noise coming from what appears to be my brake calipers. Is this normal or do I have too much play in my brake components? It's still under warranty.

Default Re: Had the same thing

I had the same noise on my current and prior S4. It was the caliper clips. The dealer fixed the problem with some lubricant and adjustments. They initially didn't agree that the noise came from the clips but I showed them some of the posts on this forum and that convinced them. Thanks to forum members once again!
