Default Help with the noise!

Well, there is a noise I noticed a couple of weeks ago and I dont seem to be able to figure out where its coming from. I think it started with my right wheel jumping down from the curb at the gas station when I was leaving and did not see the ramp clearly in the dark when taking the right turn out. Anyways, the noise does not seem to be directly connected to anything, but usually happens at the end of braking when the car is coming to a stop and I am easing on the brakes a bit. It sounds short, light and crispy metal, pretty clear, coming from the rear right side, can be heard very clearly from the outside and inside too. It also happens sometimes when I turn left or accelerate, but I am usually not able to duplicate it on demand... ( eg if I keep accelerating/braking it does not happen ) It does not happen if I just accelerate hard or brake hard, or repeat the maneuver... Sounds sort of like some light metal object hitting the exhaust pipe but I checked and could not see anything and the pipe was not loose... Any ideas would be very welcome!

Control arm maybe?? I had a similar problem and it was the front right control arm was making an extremely annoying grinding sound but only when i turned to the right!!
I mentioned the control arm because you said it made the noise when turning left!!
Go to the dealer and have them check it out!!
They found my problem pretty quickly and was a pretty easy fix!!
Good luck my man!!
