    Default Weird Clicking Noise from the Rear

    I have a weird problem.

    Whenever someone sits in the back left seat, and I take a right turn, I hear a nasty clicking sound until I straighten out again.

    My friend says its the rear strut, but I want to take sure before I rip it out.

    The clicking sounds sort of like a CV click, but the rears dont have CV axles.

    cv joints are in front and in front wheel drive cars.. they let the suspension move up and down while your accelerating

    CV = constant velocity

    Kinda work like U-joints.

    CVs turn the wheels.

    I think you are talking about struts/shocks/springs?
