Default Clicking noise

I am hearing a clicking sound that sounds like it is coming from the rear end when I take off and sometime when I stop. Has anyone else had this problem?

I'd do a search on this subject because there's a lot of fixes out there. I took mine to the dealership and they basically took off everything that they could back there including the rear passenger tire until it stopped.

I get an occasional clicking from the brakes when I apply light pressure. It is usually one definitive click and then it's gone. I have no idea what it is...

Default I know what you're talking about.

Only happens when you step on the brake pedal. Just one click, right? It does't bother me, so I never took the car in for that. Would like to know what it is if you do find out though....

only 1 click, I figure it's just the pads moving in the caliper so I haven't taken it in either. I also have the clutch spring noise sometimes. Wierd.

Had the same problem. Dealership looked at it and order new parts for it (calipers, pads and shim kit). U might want to do the same.

It could be the calipers. If it's more than one click it's part of your axle. Nissan says they are working on a fix. They also stated that it's not dangerous or anything. Also I heard that one fix is to pack in some more grease. I'm just going to wait till they come out with a permanent fix
