Click noise, clunking noise

[reeze]

Been using my MG4 SR for 6months, indonesian market. I've searched all over rhe forum but I found no similar case.

1. Clicking noise near right dashboard behind steering wheel, close to door. Sounds like relay click. Duplicable everytime i release footbrake (normal brake) under 5KPH.
(Release brake -> 0.3 secs -> click). Everytime!


2. Clunking noise near the middle console. Under/in front of the drawer with sliding door, possibly behind the USB charger slots. I think something is loose there. Sounds like a heavy metal filled with water "thunk" (imagine a metal key hitting a metal water bottle). The noise always come out when my right tyres hitting a shallow hole, and when i brake in slow speed (i.e when the car rocking/tilting to the right and/or front)
Anyone have an image of what's under there??

Planning to bring it to the dealer but it need 3 days to check. Need the car for daily work.

Thank youu

The clicking sounds like a noisy brake pedal switch . There is a video from Resurwreck Autos on you tube where he strips out the interior including the area you are interested in. Episode 3 I think!

I don't know how to ???? Links ? not a clue, is there a " forum for dummies menu " I have some good photos on the phone which will not transfer, or more to the point I do not know how to . If someone could lend me a five year old. ( supervised of course , to mitigate future legal problems, I have never worked for the BBC. The hoops you have to jump through just to get some cheap child labour. )

Does the click occur and/or in ACC mode?

I often get a loud click when the car's in ACC mode and is slowing down suddenly e.g. the car's in ACC mode and I've pressed the accelerator and now the car in front is too close so as soon as I lift off, clunk, the car is automatically breaking and/or using the regenerative breaking to slow me down.

Both in ACC mode and manual mode.
More pronounced when in manual tho

What about the different regenerative levels. Is it the same at each level?

Case closed guys.

Found the exact problem, one of the screw for crashbar came loose, causing it to move (and hit the structure).
