Did you check to see if your front strut bar is loose?

Did you install an after-market front sway bar? What about after-market springs or shocks? Did you have any work done recently on your suspension/brakes?

Did you take it to the garage you told me about? if not I really suggest taking her to Subzero, I'm pretty sure they'll know where the noise is coming from..

new brake pads? If so they might be rocking in the bracket when you stop for the first time you'll get a clunk. Forwards or Backwards, should only happen once then go away when you drive until you change directions IE Park the car then reverse out of a spot.

Good Luck let us know.
