Default Clicking From Rear Wheel At Low Speed(driver Side)

Hi All,

As the search function isn't yet functional ... here's my Q...

While rolling in an indoor parking lot this morning I heard a light clicking coming from the rear driver side wheel? The clicks seemed to be constant with the tire rotation speed.

I checked the tire tread for any pebbles or other foreign objects - nothing there - and when I get back home I'll try removing, replacing and retorquing the wheel & lug nuts --

Other than that any one have any clues as to what this may be? Or have it happen to their S?

My S is an O4 with 2500 miles.

Thanks

I had this problem and had the spline nuts replaced and retorqued. Now the noise is gone.

I stopped at my dealers service dept on the way home from the office - they offered me an appointment for a thorough inspection of the rear or an immediate space on the lift to pull the rear wheels and retorque the hub nuts & subsequently the lug nuts on both rear wheels... seems to have done th etrick as the noise is/was gone after I drove the car out of service dept.

thanks all
