maybe within that time.. the spring got shook up maybe after a big bump or ditch and can't seem to sit right again.. u can try jackin the car up and maybe bang the spring with a soft hammer? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] ..but don't take my word for it, just a suggestion

This is what happened to my car. I hit a huge bump, and then my car started to make clicking sound when I would turn. It was because the spring wasn't sitting right like alex1 said.

My bad, I mean plastic (alex1 started the thread).

guys its not that clicking problem with the spring. its like something is hitting the rotor or the wheel as it turns. it dissapears when i step on the brake. other than that its there.
