clicking sound

[ef-civic]

hey umm just today a sound appeared.. i go over bumps and theres like a thumping sound.. like something's lose.. in the right tyre area.. when driving theres like a clicking sound.. what could it be ?

[JohnL]

A regular ticking that slows down and speeds up with changes in car speed, or erratic?

[EuroDude]

The thump could be a worn suspension bushing, and the clicking noise could be the CV joints (the clicking should sound more predominant when cornering).

Take the car to a mech and get them to inspect the problems and provide a quote.

[ef-civic]

yeah it slows down and speeds up in the changes of car speed and nah no thumping when turning corners.. just over bumps

[xtat1k]

check that ur lugnuts are tight.

[ef-civic]

everythin is sweet aye.. checked all that..

[xtat1k]

suspension wearing out ?

[blk_shadow]

sometimes I got that too from the rear side.

I've changed the bushing as well, and still making it.

[ef-civic]

well i found out my noise's are the sway bar bracket the front.. its gone so sway bar is bouncing around which is making the thumping sound

[Limbo]

replace the bush in the swaybar bracket then. They are only about $20-30 for a pair

[gnx1987]

the clicking might be a stone in the tyre?

[VTi_b0i]

u sure its the sway bar? if not, could be the CVs y0

[ef-civic]

nah we jacked up the car and got under and had a look dude.. thats what it is... the sway bar is bangin around everywhere

[EuroDude]

Cant imagine how loose suspension can cause constant clicking (unless the clicking was random).

[ef-civic]

yeah there was a clicking sound... but it was more of a thump.. clicking is gone now..

[EuroDude]

ah ok, thought the CV joints may have worn out or something.
