Clicking Noise From Rear

[nuffsaid]

Anybody?

It might be what I have. My mech said I've got a busted bolt in the clutch near the throw-out bearing. When you have the hold the car at the catch-point in reverse and then 'jockey' it on and off power a little bit (so yes, the car will jerk), the transfer of weight makes a sharp 'clack clack' noise that sounds driveline related. On the little arm that has the throw-out bearing on the end, there are two small wires/arms holding a ball-ended bolt. Apparently this bolt can snap, but the clutch still works fine, it just makes a god awful noise. For me. it is most easily heard in the situation above, but I can also hear it in the changes between 1st/2nd and 2nd/3rd, particularly if I'm a bit rough and let the clutch out a bit too fast.

Issue solved for me, looked like a worn driveshaft on one side.

Replaced with a reconditioned unit. No problems now.

Really worn driveshaft??? Might have to get mine checked out as well. This noise also drives me crazy. I Have a Kazz 1.5 way.

My issue came about after I installed the new diff. While it was getting installed the diff guy I went to called me up and advised me that the kazz diff only came with one O ring clip for one side, its were the diff shafts slid into. Was advised by person I bought it off you have to use the other standard one for the other side. But the standard one doesn’t fit . So I just left it as we couldn’t really source one out. So I think there is a little play on one side as it hasn’t been clipped in tight enough.

Just my 2c
