Clunking noise when shifting from Park to Reverse or Drive. Also present at low speed braking or turning.

Hello all, I've started getting this concerning clunking noise from the rear of the car. Any time I shift from park into drive/reverse there's this metallic knocking sound from the rear end. It's also present when accelerating slowly from a stop, gradually braking to a stop or turning. I don't see any lights or warnings on the dash. I recently did a brake bleed 2 weeks ago. Car has about 38k kms on it.

Any thoughts? It's really got me stressing

Did you change out your pads too? They could be shifting, causing a clunking sound.

i didn’t change out the pads no. I have aftermarket whees as well. I’m not pushing big power either

Just to confirm, these are the OEM pads correct?

When I put my most recent set of DTC60s on with new rotors I bed them in pretty well (or so I thought) and could hear then clunk from time to time if I was starting from a stop or at really low speeds applying a bit of pressure. But that went away after a session or 2 on track.
