Default brake question
did a regular c5 have cooling ducts for the brakes in the front?
the reason im asking is b/c i have a popping niose coming from the front end, and this is a very low mileage car? its only under hard sharp cornering.
if theyre not factory maybe theyre rubbing the tires? any help with this would be app.
thanks in a advance.

Default cornering
I'd look at the sway bars and end links and then the shocks.
I think the end links were plastic
I replaced the bars and links my 2000 with z06 bars and end links
