Default 2005 clicking sound

So ive done the clicking sound search, and i found something on the internet about the clicking sound the Z has.... my question: Is the clicking thing on the 2005 too? for some reason i think the clicking is only on the 2003, and 2004. Mine clicks, and it's 2005.

Also, how bad is the clicking for the car?

How bad is your car clicking? Where does it sound like it's clicking? What does the clicking sound like?

I took mine in for a clicking today(sounded like two spoons slapping together in the undercarraige) and turns out I need some new rear axle parts and lube, on a tsb issue. Might be worth looking into.

Wheres the undercarriage? Are you talking about under the hood? Mine is making this ticking noise too and its a brand new 2005? Anyone get anything resolved or answered from the dealer? Sounds like its coming from the valve train and when the engine warms up its less noticable> anything?
Edit: Undercarriage, under the car. ooohhh

If the rear axle is clicking then it is clicking. The deficiency sounds similar to coins dropping on the ground. Did you get it fixed?
