I did my own brake job today on my 2001 kia sportage. I changed front brake pads and rotors. driver side seems like it came out ok, but something happened on the passenger side, because now I get a clunking noise when turning left with steering wheel turned all the way. I also noticed some clunking when taking off and braking. The noise was not there before the brake job. What could it be?

Ensure caliper is tight and wheel nuts are tight, go back and re check what you removed to do the job.
