Well it's not really that funny as it's annoying me.
When coming to a stop and gently braking i can hear a tap noise (not a dripping tap) as if there's some slack somewhere. Also when pulling away from dead stop and releasing the clutch i hear the same tap noise.
Just wondering if anyone can give some idea what it is?

sometimes this happens to me when I get a rock stuck in my tire tread.
or maybe you have a bolt or a nail or some other piece of debris stuck in there.
it may be making the noise all the time, it's just that when you reach a certain speed, other noises that the car makes may drown it out for example road/tire noise, or engine noise.
does it seem to have the same beats per minute as the tires have revolutions per minute?

I hope its that simple

can you feel it as well as hear it?
if not, then I think its debris

if you can feel it then it may be something else

This may be a stupid question, but are you wearing tap shoes?

No stones in tyre or other debris. Only use the tap shoes on sunday afternoon lol!
Having googled the issue it seems to be worn bushes, loose susspension bolts/nuts or even a worn cv joint.
It's booked in on wednesday for a check over.
Thanks for replys even yours Hazady lol!

My problem is now fixed! Just a few slightly loose nuts on my lower engine strut brace.
