Well i have some clicking noise coming from the front right it clicks as fast as the wheel is turning but when i press on the brake lightly it goes away? Could my caliper be loose or what is this?

I have a similar squeak but on the left side. Let me know if you ever figure yours out. I can't.

eghonda

it might be a bad CV joint or a bad wheel bearing. both are known to cause that clicking...

spencedogg

but stopping when applying the brake lightly?

check your pads i dont know man

SpoonFedHatch

either your brake pad shims are not in there, or you have a bad CV axle

those are the two most likely probems, and both can be fixed for under $50

thanks guys to the top for more help

i'd say check out ur cv joint and boot. if thats fine it might be something with the brakes

Ricey McRicerton

Im going to second these guys and say CV joint

AeMpwRd eX

does it seem to get a little louder when you turn the wheel?

spencedogg

nope its not the axle it stays the same loudness but clicks faster as i drive

check out the cv joint/boot. if its not that then im not sure what it could be. it might have something to do with the brakes but im not sure what would cause a clicking noise. just get under the car and see if you can notice anything(i.e. open cv boot, inner and outer). oh yeah when you check the cv boot/joints make sure that you check the inner also not just the outer. if the outer is fine and the inner is bad it can still cause a clicking noise. sorry its kinda long but im just tryin to think of somethings it could be

I have the same problem coming from the driver's side. It has been doing it for over a year, and I have no idea what it is. When I try to duplicate it when the car is on a lift I can't. The CV boot is fine.

A click or a squeak? Mine is a squeak.

I never heard CVs squeak, and I have checked over EVERYTHING down there and can't find it.

I assume my hub is going out or there is a piece of debris in there, I don't know, the squeaking comes and goes but when it is there, goes away with VERY light braking pressure. It's driving me crazy.

does it sound like it inside the car....mine comes from inside the car and its on the driver side. I kicked the **** out of my dash one day and it quit. Im not reccomending this but it worked for me.

even if the cv boot is fine the cv joint(inside the boot) still might have gone bad. they would only click they wouldnt squeak

95civicracer

i would say either the joint or entire axle and this is funny because i am actually walking out the door now to get that same damned noise fixed

spencedogg

thanks for you help guys ill check that stuff when i get a chance

Try tightening your lugs.

Turn your wheel to lock on either side and let the car slide forward. If you hear the clicking its a cv joint. I had a rock wedged in the calipers once and it made a clicking noise that changed with wheel speed.

autoponicz

its likely to be your wheel bearing.......jack the side of the car that has the noise.....grab the wheel(one hand on 9 o'clock and the other hand on 3 o'clock)wiggle the wheel....if it moves.....then its a good chance its your bearing.....
