Doesnt really do it when its cold or not been driven for more than half hour or so. I did ask adam at autotecnica and he said its normal. It just doesnt sound like it should be normal, sometimes it goes through me it clicks that loud !
i never get any vibations and rear shocks and tyres are all good. It might be just me. Im like this with cars..... if i hear a noise or something doesnt feel right i need it checking out and fixing!!
This is just from own experience, but does the clicking noise as you describe only happen when say going around a roundabout or cornering etc?? I had a strange rubbing noise coming from the back end when cornering, again only eveident when driven say 10 mins, I assumed the worst, bearings , diff
but found the rear brake back plate was rubbing against the disc. This only happens when new discs have been fitted, the back plate corrodes over time. See my thread regarding this.
Has something got trapped between the brake pads / caliper?
Prop centre bearing?
Inner or outer CV's, usually the outer will click or knock when turning.
Have you checked all fluid levels in the diff / gearbox, have the correct fluids been used?
You state the longer / more you drive, the noise becomes more evident, so heat related?
Ive got no noises present on mine, is this normal
Its hard to diagnose a fault or problem like this, without actually hearing the noise first hand
Back end instability may be due to a worn shock, something has broken off, like a roll bar link etc, bushes may be worn, links maybe worn, Tyres are the big one, wrong tyres fitted = shit handling..... You really need to give the car a good once over before condeming the main drive components.
How fast are you taking the corner or roundabout to cause a bouncing sensation, are you coming on and off the gas when cornering?
Does anybody live close to you that owns another WR1 or scoob of the same year?
Hope some of this helps
