slight clicking noise from left rear of car
I just noticed the other day when I go from a complete stop and let the clutch out in first i hear two faint clicking sounds that seem to be coming from the left rear side of the car. the actual sound sounds like something tapping something on aluminum or stainless steel. but after the very beginning of first gear it completely goes away. I have an 05 350z track edition with the JWT 530BB KIT (twin turbo) Brembo track brakes and the coilovers are JIC Magic FLT-A2'S. Everything was professionally installed and tuned by VTR. Im thinking this noice is from a wheel bearing on its way out or something of that nature. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

well, i can tell you for sure it has nothing to do with the brakes because i have the same noise and it was happening on my stock brakes. i just upgraded to wilwood BBK and the noise is still there. 2 other friends of mine have Zs and i notice their cars make the same noise. im interested in knowing what it is lol

Yea i mean im thinking its eaither a wheel bearing or that rear axle needs to be replaced. but the only thing is it just barely makes the noise out of first then totally stops after that.

I had my axles re-greased at the dealership a few years ago and now I'm getting a clicking sound that seems to be coming from the left rear. I get a single click when I press on the gas pedal and then I get another click sound when I let of the gas pedal. Could it be the same thing? Needs to be re-greased??
