Hi all,

i went out for a drive lastnight and i noticed that within 0 - 40 KM/h a clicking noise is coming from my front left wheel would anyone know what would be wrong here? when i go above 40km/h i do notice that the sound gradually disappears but im just abit frightened that something serious is going wrong i do know that my rotors/pads are due for changing but im just worried that more parts will need replacing...

step 1) check brakes and rotors for wear.

if those are ok, its probably your axle cv shaft. or wheel bearing. download helms in my signature. it has directions on how to check these things.

I would say your cv shaft is going bad. Does it click slow speeds in turns?

If its under load as you take off then it might be the cv axle shaft. Just recently replaced mine that was doing the same thing.
