So when im shifting Auto trany from drive to reverse or from reverse to drive i get a click click noise coming from under the car around the rear or center of the car the noise is coming from. and sometimes i put it in park and let off the brake and i get the click noise also? Any ideas what this could be? its a 2005 g35x.

 

I have a coupe and there is a known "rear axle" click issue. Not sure if this is a known issue on the sedans.

Do a search and see,

 

I think you are hearing the shift lock solenoid. It's what unlocks the shifter from shifting park when you apply the brake. You can sort of hear it if you just pump the brakes while the car is in park.

 

Im not sure it started doing it 4 months ago out of no where. it didnt do it for the first 8 months i had the car. So thats why i didnt think it was the shift lock solenoid. but thanks for the help.

 

lol when I shift my car into R I hear the tranny slapping together.

 

my 05 G35x auto has done it since I bought it with 39k. I have left it alone since and no problems 55k later!

 

Thanks, good to know.. didnt want to have to spend all kinds of money to get it fixed if i didnt have too.

 

Most likely rear axle click. From what I understand it is only annoying and not detrimental to the axle.

 

My car started doing this every day a while back...but then it went away by it's self. I have yet to have a problem though.

 

Hey I've been hearing this noise myself for a while now on my '05 coupe. I got in an accident a few years back, thought it might be a slightly bent frame issue. Good to hear it might be something simpler. I also found this on youtube:

 

rear axles clicking for sure. Common problem for 03-05 sedans. Mine click everyday in the summer time but seems to go away during the winter. Been doing it for the past 20-30K miles. The fix is to regrease the axles, there is a TSB on it somewhere on here.

 

Yeah I have an 06x and just had mine done under warranty.
