Clicking Noise

[agginline86]

Just started hearing a faint clicking/clunking noise while the car is moving
seems to match with revolutions of the wheels, but not every revolution
goes away while braking
not loud enough to hear while accelerating
as I speed up the rate of clicking increases

I dont have any rocks or nails in my tires


Going to check a few things when I get home
-wheel bearings
-anti-rattle clip or other brake components rattling
-warped rotor?

any other suggestions?

Axle boot and lower ball joint if your gonna gonna check the brake components.

Also does it clunk when turning?

No, the sound does not get worse while turning in either direction

I had a similar problem. I just had the caliper slide bolts greased and the clicking went away for good. They were bone dry before.

It had like a "pebble stuck in the tread" sound but it was really noticeable rolling through parking garages and driving along a curb which reflects the sound. Bothered me for a longggg time.

that sound exactly like mine
I pulled into a parking lot to try and hear it by just pushing the car and I couldn't place it
checking my tires for pebbles was the first thing i did haha

I'll check it out when I get home
thanks for the heads up

Yeah, it varied with speed but it seemed to occur randomly too. It wasn't a constant occurrance. It was usually at a rolling pace or a pretty low speed. I hope this fixes your problem as it's cheap to fix/replace! CHeck those rubber boots on the pins and see if they're torn.

Depending on how low you are, it could very well be your axle. I've been through 5 in the past 3 years =/

I'm only dropped like 2" Eibach Sportlines


I popped off the wheel that I thought the sound was coming from
Looked at my brakes to make sure nothing was rattling around there and put everything back on during my lunch break today
and driving back to work the noise seemed to have stopped

maybe one of my lugs was loose or something?
Seems to be gone for now

Loose lugs. At least it was an easy fix.
