Does the clicking rate vary with wheel speed? Check the chain tensioner and the freewheel. If your freewheel only has 4 notches in it for the removal tool, it's an older one. They can get noisy before they go bad. If it has 8 notches it's a newer one, they beefed it up. Take the chain off the motor sprocket and turn the shaft. If it makes noise and wont turn smoothly, your motors bad. Check the chain for stiff links, and look for any broken plastic parts or loose bolts or screws. Check the nut on the shock and tighten that if it's loose.

There is a loud clicking noise when I turn on the heater in my 2010 Chrysler 300 Tourist.
Sounds like a blend door actuator that has a stripped gear.

My 2001 xterra started making a weird sound between 20 and 35 mph. It sounds like there is a leak in some pressure system.
Common Car Noises and Their Likely Causes Noise More Details Likely Cause Fixing It Clicking noise while turning Starts faint, gradually becomes more noticeable until very loud Failed outer CV joint (constant velocity joint) due to torn boot (most likely) or old age Replace either the whole axle assembly (recommended) or the outer CV joint Water pump noises Difficult to diagnose because of water pump's location Noise usually caused by damage to the bearings in failed water pump Only cure is replacing it. If possible do it at the same time as a timing belt replacement to cut down on labor costs Squeak or squeal from an engine belt Loud, high-pitched squeak or squeal Belts either need adjustment or replacing If belts only squeak when damp, they probably just need adjustment. If they squeak constantly, they probably need to be replaced Exhaust heat shield noises Rattle that you hear when car is idling Damaged heat shield Replace heat shield

Driving noise, not from bearings
it could be center bearing, if its going bad it can also cause a vibration, make sure you have sufficient fluid in the diff as well, you can also get a noise and vibration from collapsed motor or trans mounts

Micra K13 Loud Noise at Higher Speeds
I've just bought a K13 Nissan Micra and it doesn't sound quite right. The noise I hear also seems to be coming from the back but it sounds like when you chop down a gear in a manual going down a hill and the engine revvs, well this is the noise I get in the automatic speeding up and slowing down, even just cruising at a steady speed. Any ideas people? Apart from this noise I love this car.

I hear a loud grinding noise when i drive my car
Check front tyres & wheel bearings espesially the R/H/F. Feel tyre for high / low spots on inside & jack up & spin wheel if you get noise while jacked up it is not the tyres but wheel bearing or brake pads but more than likly a crook bearing by the sound of it. It needs to be tended to ASAP

hi a loud noise like the one you described can really only be a few things, either the main engine bearing is getting worn and is on its way out or you have a damaged or dirty lifter. The main difference between the two is the bearing will sound like a knock or grinding noise and the lifter will be more like a loud tick from either the left or right head on the motor you may just have to listen carefully to tell but it is possible and they will both speed up with the engine rpm. A bearing will usually cause problems running/starting/idling etc so maybe lean towards a lifter if it is damaged it will need an expensive replacement but try an oil change first as this can also free up dirt etc and solve the prob

After I drive around in my mini van i hear a loud rattling noise. It seems that it is coming from the a/c each time it comes on. Once i turn the a/c off the noise stops. Any thoughts?
HI, this sounds like you have a normal Chrysler A/C compressor starting to fail. The electric clutch on the front of the compressors fall apart and cause this rattling noise.
YOu can get a good idea if this is the problem by standing on the passenger side and watching the A/C compressor and belt as someone turns the A/C on and off. Good luck

My 88 vtr 250 makes one loud CLICK noise when i try to start the bike coming from the starter relay i bought a used one from ebay but same result ideas?
Start with making sure the battery terminals are clean. Then make sure the battery is fully charged. When that is in place try again, even if you jump it to another bike. Follow where the click is actually coming from, is it the relay or is it from the starter motor. Your problem is 98% caused but either a battery that is had it, (not holding charge) or a dicky starter motor. Having a manual will not go astray, I couldn't find one to suit your model, but you are welcome to fossick around. They are freebies:

When you are driving down the road it sounds like you are driving next to a loud dirt bike strange noise coming from the front end, any ideas
It is probably the exhaust. Take it to a mechanic and get him to take a look under the car.
