Assuming that there is no grit etc in the pads and that the discs are still round and flat, have you checked that the ABS is not causing a problem. Also that nothing is moving into contact with moving parts - like onto tyres or drive shafts?

Lucky you found out that in time. Could have been nasty.

Not sure how you mean to check the abs, but to test it, find a gravel car park and slam the brakes on, you should feel the pedal releasing.

RE: check abs - all I meant was to ensure that clicking wasn't something going on in the abs module when pushing on the brake pedal.......
