today i was driving my z around and when im very lightly coming to a stop i hear a popping/settling noise coming from the car i dont know if it is my suspension settling a ball joint my brakes or a bearing how could i find out???

 

Take it to the dealer if within warranty.

 

is it only when you are slowing down? where is the sound coming from?

 

mods? sound like mini backfires?

 

it comes from the front of the car like the suspension or something and yea it is only when im on my brakes coming to a stop but only real light on the brakes

 

I think it's your Axle. My axle was making this loud clicking noise at slow speeds and at stops. The mechanic at the dealer put an impact gun to the axle after he greased and no more noise!
