a single "click" when going from a stop,help?
ever since i dumped the ride I've been hearing this click when im accelerating from a complete stop,i.e stop sign,stop lights,it's coming from the engine bay,suspension related but not sure which side or what.i looked at the cv joints and they werent ripped but they're really oily,and its not a clicking noise like if your cv is bad,it's just a single click
can anyone help me out?
EDIT!!
PASSENGER SIDE STRUT TOWER NUTS WERE LOOSE,THANKS PEEPS!!

you know my car did that after i did a swap too..like if you do a U-turn from a complete stop, it'll click..i remember reading on here a while ago, some guys had the same problem..they retightened the bolts oh the axels, suspension, etc., anyways after they did that, it went a way..i have yet to tighten mine..just too lazy, and it don't even bother me anymore ..good luck!

Re: (pythoner)
have the same problem... and it was after doing the full bushing system
I just replaced the axles, tierods, lower and upper ball joints, wheel bearings, lca bushings, uca bushings. and ditched the front sway bar... still have it
check the expletive out of all the bolts and nuts... i missed the uca bolts and after that it cut the noise down but i still have 1 single click from take off

yup, make sure every bolt is on really good.... the last problem would be motor mounts cause when u take off, it shifts everything back slightly.
Ill be puttin in motor mount inserts shortly and let u know if it fixed it. Also, did u get a wheel alignment after the coilovers?? im gettin one tomorrow cause i did new tierods. i hope that might fix it cause im also dumped on H&R race springs and my wheels are asking to rub...

no ****, the ******* bolts were causein the click... i have the same ******* thing and have replaced everything. WHeel alignment didnt solve anything (other then the toe/camber problem)
Ima go over all the bolts tomorrow before class and see if i have the same thing but awesome you found out the problem
