Default Clicking noise

I was last week back home, and I've noticed my S2000 doing some weird sounds from the back. Anyone have the bolt on the hubs making noises so maybe I can check it out in yours to see if its the same as mine back at home. Cuase I don't trust the honda mechanics down there. I asked them if the have the honda mtf oil for my S they said no, but I can use the ATF so neh don't trust them.
Anyone can help me with a sound effect or something?
Thank you

Check the threads, Mav and Daworm had a similar problem as I remember. I know it was mention in a thread about 1 or 2 months ago.

Have your spindle nut checked out, could be an early sign that your rear diff is about to blow though, but if the clicking sound is coming specifically from one of the rear wheels, then its the spindle nut.

A clicking sound could be a loose spindle nut, or it could be a bad bearing, worn CV joint or even a bad differential.

Many of us have had good success with the technician Neil at Rick Case Honda. You might want to stop by and see if they can help you out.

I would of bring it to a place, prob is I have the car back at Curacao. So I'm trying to find out what is the prob so i can buy some things that I will be needing and when I get home by christmas I can work on it. Sound come when I start from 1, when I go form a higher gear to a lower one, not even extreme like high rpm stayed belove 5k, and when i'm in reverse I hear that sound too.
So basicly will be a good thing to buy cv joints and bearings just in case, or if anyone can help me what parts should be better for me to change.
About a diff, i'm still thinking if I'll put a 03 or put a 04 in it. 04 with its new housing and so.
