When this clicking sound occurs, what is your TOD indicator doing? If it is engaging/disengaging rapidly up and down you can hear a "banging" noise sometimes, but if it is truly a "clicking", I would suspect some sort of CV issue. The right or left is for you to figure out.

do you have skid plates? i had clicking during turns and occasionally over bumps when a torsion bar was touching my skid plate... dont know if this applies here but its one more thing to check for easily
Super VXer
no skidplates yet. i will call the shop tomorrow but i know they will not be happy because that had to redo a bunch of stuff that they f***edup already. thanks

I wonder what any of them would expect if the same thing had happened to one of their vehicles at another shop?Originally Posted by WiSDoM

I got my Vx back today, they could onjly determine the noise was coming from the diff. they told me to take it to the dealership and if it was their install that f***ed it up then they would reimburse me for the work. when they gave me the old half shaft back from the original install it was in pieces. is that normal for the install to have to strip all the guts from the inner cv on the halfshaft? any ideas what could have happened?

What kind of replacement parts were listed on the work order/receipt? It's possible they replaced items such as the boot, seals, ball guide, ball bearings, guide retainer, etc when installing a new axle assembly. That would seem normal. That still wouldn't explain why you have a noise eminating from an area where there wasn't one before though.
If they're offering to foot the bill for a dealership to check things out and possibly make any repairs necessary, it'd sure at least be worth another opinion, although personally, I might be inclined to get that offer in writing first.

yeah they are only offering to pay the dealership if it is due to their install.
