Clicking noise when turning

[Butter18c]

I get a clicking noise when I turn to the right from my left rear wheel. It's rhythmn makes it sound like its with each rotation of the wheel. I read another thread similar to this and it said the parking brake could have been the problem, but I checked that it was off. Any ideas?

check the wheel bearings?

as for the parking brake comment, it is usually the pads or keepers inside that are clicking...
you need to pull that side apart and see what it is...sometimes if you don't have the ability to do it, you can get a free brake inspection

Thanks for the advise. I think it stopped clicking on its own. If it comes back, Ill check the brakes and the bearings

Have it inspected anyway, I just replaced one side and it is a pain. The pad is probably separated from the backing plate and bouncing around and wearing the inside of the rotor. My guess spend the $100 and do it yourself, or a bit more for the pros. You do not want it to lock up or do more damage.

If I heard a clicking noise while turning, I would get under and check the CV joint to see if the boot is cracked and has leaked all the lube out. Sound travels down the shaft, so the noise could be coming from the opposite side of the cracked boot.
