ManwithSupra Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Hi All, Getting a strange random (random as in frequency) clicking sound when reversing on full lock and it can only be heard with the window down or when your outside the car. Any ideas what i need to be looking at? I am thinking one of the rear driveshafts is had its day, tried to do a search on here but there is no real diagnosis that i can read. Suggestions on what to look for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porky1978 Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 You sure its not steering related?? Is it definately coming from the rear of the car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManwithSupra Posted June 14, 2010 Author Share Posted June 14, 2010 It seems to be coming from the rear, difficult to tell when your in the car. What could it be steering related then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 You really need someone else to pin point the source of the sound. I had a similar intermittent click, which I thought was rear end related. It turned out to be loose front sub frame bolts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porky1978 Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Jack the front end up and check your ball joints for wear/security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManwithSupra Posted June 28, 2010 Author Share Posted June 28, 2010 (edited) Ok just had a garage try and diagnose this, and he says the sound is coming from the front upper passenger side suspension arm?? Not sure how this could be making a clicking sound?? Has anyone got any ideas or could confirm that this could cause a clicking sound? About a year ago i had R2 racing bushes installed all around the car, so i am dumfounded on what this could be.

Scott Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Tyre clipping the guard (the guard faces downwards overlapping). Had this a while back, if it is barely touching it, it'll sound like clicking. Another thing to check is the brake line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
