You hear it just once? Do you hear it when you have started to apply the brakes for the stop? If so, possible missing some shim hardware for the brake pads...maybe....

Hmmm...not sure, you could check the spring pearch for the right front strut. See if where the bottom of the spring contacts the strut and see if there is a contact mark on the spring itself. Maybe the lip on the strut got bent in a little and is popping on the strut. Only thing about this, I would think you would here it more often...

or its a bomb! RUN!

I had the same problem 2weeks ago, hit a real deep bump and it was gone, kinda messed up for that to happen but hey i guess it fixed my problem.....this stunt should not be attempted at home.
