Clicking noise when brakes are applied

I recently bought my CL and I love it, problem is, I noticed when I apply the brakes there is a "click". Is this normal or I thought maybe something was loose, I had the dealer do a 30 point inspection on it and the brake noise wasn't mentioned. Any help, comments would be appreciated.

its prolly just the rotor catching the pads. they will move like 1/16th of an inch, and make the noise.

Can we tighten it? Is this common, should we buy a different pad or rotor in the future?

The brake pads have been changed now and I still hear that silly noise. Does it matter that its only on the front passenger side that I hear this? It doesn't have anything to do with whether its cold or fully warmed up. Any suggestions would be great!

My '98 3.0 and my '03 Odyessy do the same thing, but only when I back after stopping going forward and vise versa. Mine don't click everytime I put the brakes on. That said, Honda brakes do have some 'play' in the design and can cause the 'clicking' sound even when there is nothing wrong.
