I was driving my MH today and heard like a clunking sound when I would apply the brakes or sometimes just while I was driving. I have a 05 Phaeton with front air bags. It seems that the ride height is okay.
Any ideas?

Thanks

I hear that occasionally in my '04 and I've been told to ignore it. It only seems to happen when it has been setting for awhile before driving and then the first few times I use my brakes I hear the noise. The noise on mine appears to be from the DS front.

If you learn anything more I hope you will post it.

It maybe coming from the tailpipe clamp that holds the tailpipe on for the generator. It seems to be lose and the rubber grommet is worn out. I hope it is this simple!
