Sup fellas

I have an MY02 S2000. It is about 2 months old. Whenever I engage into first gear, I hear a clicking sound from the back. It happens sometimes. I am just wondering if the sound is normal. If not, I am going to get it checked out. Plus I have on 18" BBS rims. Could this be causing it?

Thanks

 

is it just one time when you engage first gear, or does it continually do it when in gear (and maybe the sound of the engine + road noise drowns it out when in higher gears)? if it is continual, then that might be what happened to me a month ago...i had to get the differential replaced. if it just happens once...then i'd like to find out what that is, because my car also has the same symptom. i'm hoping it'll go away when i change the transmission fluid, but i'm guessing it wont.

 

Have you had your brake pads replaced recently? I'm testing a theory of mine..

 

The noise only happens in first gear...maybe second. Need to listen closely. Ex) The car is in first gear and I give it some gas and let the clutch out. "Boom" and there is a clicking sound. It

nope...i'm changing the brakes this weekend.

 

Its the midget b*tch you have locked in the trunk!

 

1. Axle nut re-torque TSB
2. Shifting brake pads
3. Differential

i wish...i'll open the truck and let him free

 

i have a honda warranty

36,000miles/100,000 powertrain

can they fix it with out charge?

 

My car is in the shop for this right now. I read another really long thread about this same problem. Here's what I gleaned from the 14 page thread:

To solve clicking noise: remove axle nut, grease nut and axle, retorque axle nut down to 220 ft/lbs

To solve shaking that sometimes comes if you let the "clicking" go on for too long: replace CV joint (I can't remember whether it's usually the inner or outer joint?)
