    I think it's the shift lock...mine has been doing it as long as i can remember. I think I have a "dee-dee-dee" VX though, as I can freely move my shifter even without pushing on the brake. Doesn't seem to be an issue thus far. The sound to me, sounds like it's coming from the shifter area.

    I traced my clicking noise back to two components -the rod from the brake pedal lever to the booster, and the brake light switch.

    I only noticed the noise after I changed my master cylinder and the fluid was very low/unbled.

    It's a lot less noisy now.

    I don't know how low fluid would contribute to a loose rod/switch, but it seems to affect it.

    Try it yourself -put your head on the floorboard and press on the pedal a few times. You can actually see the source of the clicking.

    Thanks for everyone's suggestions.

    BRAKE PEDAL CLICKING/PULSING
    The original clicking/pulsing was coming from the brake pedal. I checked the brake fluid level and it was low, adding additional fluid resolved the problem. It must have been some combination of low brake fluid and humidity.

    SHIFTER CLICING
    As for clicking under the shifter, I noticed that this only occurs when the car is in Park and when I release the brake. Is there any way to fix this? By the way, What's a "dee-dee-dee" VX?

    I seem to recall something in the owner's manual about the brakes clicking in order to warn about some brake abnormality. I'll have to find mine and reread it.
