Yes, usually it can be seen ..... but, sometimes you have to look closely.

If the pad was "sticking" to the rotor, then breaking lose, it would make a sound right when you first move the car.

If it is a spring "popping" you may consider spraying a bit of silicone spray around where the springs meet their seat.

Back in the day, we would mix up a concoction of kerosene and oil and squirt the heck out of the suspension parts till they didn't squeak anymore ……

yah it is very weird. i just went home for lunch and wanted to see if i can replicate the sound. this time i didn't turn the wheel as much as i used to when i backed out of my spot. I still heard the "pop" but it wasn't as loud. it sounds like a spring + rubber pop. and it happens as i get out of the drive way and as the car is turning. very strange...
