Hello. I have a noise comming from my car, and im not sure what it is. I have a clicking noise comming from the drivers side. Its speed related. Thought it was a cv joint. Replaced the half shaft, now it only clicks at 30 mph. And up to about 50. It used to click at all speeds up to 50. Any ideas. Thanks.

Its not that kind of noise. Its very clear and the best way to describe it is taking two marbles and hitting them together. Not sure what it is now that I replaced the half shaft.

Does lightly touching the brakes stop the noise?

Can't know wheel style. Hubcap or nut covers? Center cap? Loose wheel lug nuts - yikes!

You can take the pretty junk off if stuff is broken, faulty can make quite a noise. Just a thought,
