    a clicking noise....non driveline..i think

    Hey all. New driveshaft and guibo and all that jazz. Changed the oil yesterday and when I let it back on the ground and went for a drive I noticed a slight clicking noise when I'm off the accelerator. Say I'm off the gas to stop for a light. I can hear a clicking with the rotation of the wheels. It seems to be coming from the front end of the car. I was thinking maybe something with the brakes or loose guibo bolts (which would be driveline problem). Again, the sound goes away when I'm on the gas and is audible(but not all that loud) at about 50 to 0 mph when not on the gas pedal. Thanks for any guidance!!

    If you have an iX it might be a CV joint. Perhaps it's even one of the ones in the back.

    I also had an odd clicking noise coming from the front end. Turned out to be my brake pads rattling around.
    Me: "I can't wait to redline my car!"
    Mark: "Didn't you just break a rocker arm?"
    Me: "Yeah, I don't think I've learned my lesson."
    Mark: "You never will."
