Hey guys...

I'v only had my new Jazz for about lil more than a month.. only coupla days ago i started noticing this clicking sound from my Steering Wheel ...

It happens ONLY when the L/R Indicator is on and when i turn the steering... (NO its not the clicking sound of the indicator blinking... :P)

well.. the steering wheel makes no sound when the indicators r off..
But when im at a corner n turn on eg. my left indicator.. as im turning i would hear 2-3 clicks comin from the steering wheel.

So i decided to go visit my local Honda dealer.. n askd one of the mechanic
n the guy said the sound is normal.. its the sound of the trigger inside the steering tat lowers ur indicator lever after u exit a turn...
Since i went there on Fri afternoon around 4pm .. n it was kinda busy at their place so he left straight after hearin from me...so i thought he prolly jus tried to brush me off by makin up some bs.

But then its jus soo weird how i didnt notice tat sound b4 .. n the clickin sound only started appearing around a wk ago... it does actually seem pretty loud if i could hear it while my music is on..

Does Any of u Jazz owners hav this clicking sound???

Cheers..

emm.. i think i know wat ur talking about.. it happens to my boss's car which is a rav4... sometimes when i make a u turn or something.. it will make a few clicking sounds but i thought it's normal especially for some older cars..

my jazz also makes clicking sounds.. it happens when i steering the wheel to opposite direction.. like when i steer left it clicks once.. and when i steer back to right.. it clicks once again.. my last jazz didn't make any noise b4 so it doens't seem normal to me.

It's all normal.

as far as i know, it's very normal cos it does it on mine. It happens on my mums car and my friends car and theirs isn't the jazz.

So do'nt worry about it.
