I hear some Clunking Near the rear

Minsu · 05-27-2014, 09:04 AM

So at low speeds, when im starting to roll, coming to a slow stop, or turning, I hear this clunking sound where the rear suspension (maybe?) or rear brakes (Maybe?). I thought it was coming from the stuff in my trunk but i close all the windows and the sound dies a bit, with the windows down however i hear it very clearly....Has anyone ran into this one before?

its probably rear axle click, the splines get really dry and start making noise.

Minsu · 05-27-2014, 09:46 AM

How would i go about fixing it.

nismolucino · 05-27-2014, 09:48 AM

If your still in warranty take it to the dealer. If not just remove the rear axle nuts, pop out the axle and put molly grease on the axle splines, i had a click and it fixed my problem.

Ugh i hate the dealers, btw if i tell the dealer i want all my fluids flushed and to put to fluids in can they do that for me, and i mean ALL my fluids.

I actually took care of this the other day. I have 33k miles, and plenty of mods, but the dealer had no issues with taking both axles out, re-greasing/packing and re-installing. I have no sound coming from the rear now. Didn't take long at all.

I Found the culprit, fixed it myself

Was it your registration documents?

Minsu · 05-29-2014, 05:54 PM

Ha! Worse, I forgot I also put my extra lug nuts under the mat, they fell into where the wheel was and it's all metal, it was rolling around

Could be worse. You could have spent hours trying to figure out one of those noises to finally notice the cargo cover had flipped itself up and was rattling. I had half the interior plastics out before i caught that one.

Hahaha, it's like asking where your glasses are and ppl look at you funny cause the have been on your head the whole time
