Clicking noise in the front end... From the problem....

The clicking noise i had in the front end was from the brake pads moving back and forth under acceleration, and after letting off and powering back on, the pads move and make a ticking noise. Hope that helps everyone out... Spike

Thats odd that this popped up. I just started to hear a clicking noise that does sound like it's coming from the dash, but seems to vary with the engine rpm. Strange

Its not like a CV or anything. If it was the drive line it would be alot louder and hit REALLY hard. But its a light click and it hapeens on both sides. My father looked as i drove forward and backward and he saw the brake pad movings a bit and hitting the caliper. But hope everyone else hears the problem.... Later Spike
