There is a clicking sound coming from the rear left wheel. It makes the sound each time the wheel does a full turn (360). I recently installed H-Techs, can this be from the springs or can it be something else? I already fixed the clicking noise most G35's make in the beginning, I think it was the axle so it is not that and it doesnt sound like that. That happened upon accelleration, this happens everytime the rear wheel does a full circular spin. anyone know what thsi can be? TIA.

 

while the tire is off the ground?

if not, could be a nail or just a rock stuck in your tread.

I looked at my whole tire, nothing. I told my gf to drive while I looked at the tire and there was nothing there. I then put my aer by the middle of the rim and thats where it sounds like its coming from. It sounds as if something was stuck by the rim and when ever it turns it touches it. As you go faster it gets a bit louder, but that can just be that its clicking quicker, and when you slow down it does it slower, but you can definitely hear it, especially when near other parked cars or enclosed places. Its kinda like TIK TIK TIK TIK TIK. lol wonder if this helps.

 

remove your wheel, inspect your tires off the car, inspect your brakes.

did you drive on pebbles or salt covered roads recently? sometimes it can
get caught in the brakes.

the only other thing i can think of is the TSB that you said you already did,
or your rivits are loose if you have multi-pc wheels, could be the axle,
wheel bearing (maybe), etc. check everything that turns.

 

It actually has been snowing a bit and there was some salt on the floor. I do have 3 pc wheels but they are not on right now. This happened right after I put the H Tech springs on. Im thinking it might be that something was not tightened up properly or mayb got loose. And funny thing is my brakes seem to be squealing a bit and my car only has 11,500 miles on it. Now I am afraid to go to the dealer because I wouldnt want them to blame the springs. What do you think.

 

but you said the clicking accelerates when the wheels spin faster, right?

did you check your lug torque? give it 88lbs

 

I actually didnt. Can that really cause the clicking though?

 

Somebody else mentioned the flywheel, can this be it?

 

try the lug. it could be it and it's easy as hell to tighten it. lugs need to be
re-torqued after 5-10miles in some cases. i re-torque each time i remove
the wheels off the car.

flywheel noise would not come from the rear.
