    Thumbs up Clicking sound on turns *solved*

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hello Everyone,

    I had clicking sound on turns, very noticeable if i am exiting underground parking.

    sounded like control arms/suspension clicking. it turned out that the hood need to be realigned, there is a TSB for it too. TSB# 2035797/1

    Felt tape was added to hood adjustment buffer.

    Just thought I would share that, might help someone someday

    anybody with a clunky rattle underneath that's noticeable from 5-40mph? My local audi tuner spent hours looking for it. All suspension is either replaced, good or tightened. No exhaust loose. Just installed skid plate versus plastic shielding...we can't find anything.

    SOOO frustrating.

    +1. I have this right now and I thought it was the CV joint because it's only when I turn to the right, but if I can just apply some felt tape myself then...well, better then giving my car up to the dealership for a day or two

    Since the topic of hood alignment came up: I realigned my hood to try and alleviate some hood shake at speed. Very slight on drivers side corner nearest windshield. Is this normal? I've had lightened hoods on my race cars shake somewhat.

    For what it's worth, I have what sounds like a CD moving forward/backward in my driver's side door when I drive. Really weird. Maybe a CD really did fall through the window slot...
