Quote: just curious... what does the rear axle click actually sound like?.. is it a noise u hear when u accelerate?.. brake?.. turn?.. start the car?..

i have an '07 coupe.. do any '07 owners have this problem?.. or has it been fixed for the '07 models?...

thanks for your replies!..
you'll hear it during accelaration and downshifting, i get clicks from 1st and 2nd when i get to third its gone.

My 06 is doing it to.. havent seen anyone say what the dealer has done about it.. Did they fix it for you (2006MT) Was it covered under warranty? I dont see a TSB on the 06's.

If I took my 03 coupe in to get it fixed would they do it although my warranty is over, or does it mean i have to pay $$?

the dealer fixed it for me and it was covered under warranty... it's been more than a year now since they've fixed it and it has not come back... also, they didn't give a hard time for it being lowered (i was scurred they were gunna try and say i modified the suspension blah blah)

im sure they just did what the TSB says even though it doesn't say its for '06.

my car clicks when going from 0mph to about 5 mph then i cant hear it any more.. is this what the TSB is for? it sounds like a baseball card stuck in your bicycle wheel or something with a more clicky noise to it

Took it to Jim Coleman Infiniti in Bethesda Maryland. They replaced the bolts. Clicking gone. (Incidentally, they replaced the headlamps as well because they were on recall.. sweet.) Great service, excellent experience.

Hmmm...for what it's worth, no clicking on my 06 ~30K, but good info to watch out for down the road.

Mine on cold winter days, has a slight moaning sound in rear until things have rotated for awhile then it's gone. It's summer now, so no sound at all now. That's happen past two winters in a row. Wonder if it's the lack of grease that was mentioned earlier here (bearings?). Moaning pitch changes with tire rotation too.
Quote: If you've gotten the TSB done on your Rear Axle and the problem which is not a Clicking sound but more like a Clunk sound at slow speed going over bumps; then have you End Link Bushings on your Sway Bar replaced. Don't just get it tightened which the dealer always will do, get it replaced. Worn bushings don't get tightened; they get replaced. That should atleast fix most/all/some of you guys reporting this sound from the Rear Axle.
Good stuff. Will have to check that b/c I have that noise ever since I did my drop. Thought that was normal noise. No warranty I'm sure being I have aftermarket sways. Oh well, but thanks for that insight of possible cause.


Ok...back on topic with rear axle click...sry for the hijack.
