Clicking noise from drivers side only when driving

There is a clicking noise coming for the drivers side. But it only does it when the wheels are moving. The clicking noise gets faster when the wheels go faster.

I have a 2002 dodge durango and when I drive or turn the wheel, it makes a clicking sound. Also when I turn the wheel to. It comes and goes. The hubby took the wheel off, and see if he couldn't find anything wrong. He couldn't find nothing. What must I do? But it passes inspection.

Hi there, this could be your cv joint on that side, a good test is to put steering on full lock and go in reverse, if the noise is there then I would say it's you cv joint, cheers

SOURCE: Clicking, sticking sound from front end, drivers side

It is your cv joint that is bad. If you jack the van up on that side, check to see if the boot is ripped...and more than likely your cv joint is about shot...even if the boot is intact.

The cv joint is bad....

SOURCE: rearend or transfer case

sounds like you "had" a leaking rear-end.....and now u have a blown out ceased rear-end.....either you can have it rebuilt or have a new on put on....what caused the smoke was probably the fluid got low because of the leak causing the bearings in the rear-end assembly to heat up real bad and cease causing the truck to lock up the tires....lemme know what happens

SOURCE: Loud roaring noise in front, steering wheel has vibration, replaced tires didn't help.

Wheel bearings are likly and I've changed many to solve this problem but it's esy to pick the wrong one with e vehical jacked and on jack stands suporting the car by the lower control arms ( normal ride hieght) run the car with a driver and listen to ti run , of course theres no load on the powertrain so there will be some lash ( power on to power decline ) cheack up. The roaring noise can be isolated by puting a sounding bar ( long metal rod ( sr=crew driver)) other against the part till the sound is rounded up rear but possible the carrier bearings in the (rear end) front drive. The axel bearings and on some units the carrier bearing thats in the CV axel on the block. Sounding rod will find and change the noisey part. Professional help is a good idea if you can't carry this out saftly

SOURCE: have clicking noise on drive side by wheel.

Check for rips in cv boots. If ripped & leaking out grease,it is also letting in dirt which acts like sandpaper. Then cv joint or shaft will need to be replaced. Also check for play in wheel bearings.

What is clicking noise that seems to be coming from the driver's side wheel?

Check out your constant velocity joint on that wheel. If the boot is broken and debris has gotten in there it is possible that the joint is damaged and ready to go. When it does, You stop going!!!!!!! Engine will rev but no power to wheel.

Noise most pronounced when you make a turn and joint is under stress.

Clicking noise goes away when braking

Look at the constant velocity joints on that side. When the rubber boot tears it lets road dirt in which fouls the grease and allows premature wear on the cv joint components.

Noise when turning

If its a clicking sound then the drivers side axle will need to be replaced. I am assuming this is a front wheel drive car.

1998 Contour, clicking noise coming from front wheel on drivers side as I'm driving(it's a consistent click)

With out hearing the noise it is hard to say but it could be a wheel bearing but most of the time a bearing will hum, this could be a bad cv axle or a brake brake hitting the bracket, try to drive the car and hit the brake a little and see if the clicking goes away, if it does then i would say it is in the brakes. if it does not then have the cv axle checked.

I have a 2004 Toyota Matrix with a vibration noise coming from the front end. The noise gets louder the faster you drive and is present even when you push in on the clutch and put it in neutral. If the driver jerks the wheel to the right when driving the noise stops for a second. The noise keep up at the same pitch if you **** the wheel to Left. If you think it's a wheel bearing, which side would you guess?

Sounds like a broken bearing. If your wheel is beginning to wobble it will make contact with the brake shoes and this will them very hot to the point of giving off a burning smell
