I've noticed that when I slow down sometimes that I hear this knocking coming from what I think is the back of my car. It only happens when I use the brakes. I think it started after I changed the brake pads. Is there a possibility that the pads are knocking for some reason? I checked them out and they seem to fit right. I jacked up the car and tried to find something loose under the back that would be knocking. I couldn't find anything. My trunk is completely empty and still does this, so it's not something in there. Any help or advice would be apreciated. Thanks.

I think I've got the exact same problem, when I brake sometimes it makes a knock/ping as if you struck metal with metal... Also when I had to brake hard one night it pinged pretty bad and you could feel it through the pedal.

I've never noticed anything bad enough so that there was pedal feedback. I'm not sure what would cause that much noise either. Maybe you've got a loose caliper.
