Nothing to worry about though.
So thats the `POP'. I have it at times but I knew what it was so I never thought about it as being the famous `POP'. You get the same thing on drum brakes of course as the the parking brake uses shoes as well.
It just goes to show that a `POP' to some people is a `BOING' to someone else. You can actually hear the springs go `BOING'.
