bigbramble Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 Just got my zed today but didn't notice the clicking when I test drove it. GRRR. Luckily I paid a very very reasonable price for the car so I don't feel so bad. Clicking is when I accelerate or release the throttle (when the drives shaft are loaded and come off load). I have done a search and read a little about it. Is the consensus to try re-greasing the CV joints first or just replace? Clicking is pretty quiet now and it's a roadster so I am going to notice it due to constantly having the hood down. Anthony. Quote
martinmac Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 Move it back slowly and it should click, this will allow you to decide which side its from. The traders sell a very reasonable priced kit to fix it. There is a guide to how to do it on here. Quote
Vik54 Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 There's an echo in here Martin! Anthony - you can get it greased - but it will eventually come back again - or you can upgrade the part viewtopic.php?f=38&t=21842&start=45 Quote
gunmetalzgt Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 Check your wheel nuts before you do anything else. I had exactly the sound you describe and one of my locking nuts was rusted, broke and rattling in the wheel. Very cheap fix. £80 on some race nuts Quote
bigbramble Posted July 23, 2010 Author Posted July 23, 2010 Thanks, I am off on holiday tonight for a week. When I get back I will give it a service and a good look over. Cheers, Ant. Quote
