Clicking sound on right turns.

[saintjames7]

My mazda is making a weird clicking sound on hard right turns. But it does not happen when I turn left. Any ideas? Anybody else have this problem or has had this problem?

I don't have that problem sorry. Is it something that it is hitting in the wheel arch when you crank the wheel to the one side?

one of your CV joints is gone...will most likely have to replace the driveshaft

I've had that problem with my old car. turned out to be the ball joint and control arm had to be replaced. hopefully its something else for you.

Same thing just happened to me. They replaced the driveshaft ... covered under warranty.

if it is what i think it is,

its the washer that goes btwn the drive shaft and the nut. theres a TSB out on it. what happens is that the drive shaft moves a little in the hub, making the noise, so mazda came out w/ a new washer. the crappy part is that the washer is like $100 or something like that. hope your still under warrenty!

Silly question, but something to check... I had the noise when I turned right and it turn out to be the mount on my CAI was off..

Just something to check on.

I had the same thing when I was in either in 1st gear or reverse, there was a loud clicking sound and they replace the CV Shaft.

Here I thought it was because I put larger wheels than stock on the 3.
I'm going to get it looked at when I go in for service.
