Change brake fluid may be its helps.

 

Hi amentac.

One of my Sonata's does this as well. Just as the car completely stops, there is a click sound. I believe as you do that the pads are moving slightly in the carrier as there is a bit more play there than there was with the previous pads. I do not believe that this will affect performance in any way.

 

Napa pads never fit right. Usually they're too big but I'm not surprised that they're too small. Also the hardware may not be correct. Had that happen before where I'm not sure what caliper they had in mind when they put the hardware in the box. You can try taking them back to Napa and see if they will warranty them.

 

I agree it is the pads moving slightly on their perch. No need to worry, or replace them, I can't see a problem developing. I would just drive on.

 

Thanks for your response. I had already replaced the brake fluid a few months ago. I did end up applying some anti-squeal which seems to help a bit but not completely eliminate the noise. Guess I'll have to live with it.

 

Well, I couldn't live with it...and I found the problem.

The sound was coming from the left front brake. I took it all apart and removed the rotors. You know the two little screws that hold the rotor to the hub? The ones that you drill out the first time you ever do your brakes and never replace? It turns out that one of them was not completely drilled out and there was a bit of metal sticking out. When I mounted the new rotor I didn't match the screw holes on the rotor with the ones on the hub, so that bit of metal was pushing the rotor slightly out of place. All I had to do was remount the rotor making sure to match the screw holes and the noise is gone!

 

Good job! Fixing a mistake is better than living with it. That's how divorce came about! LOL
