Clicking with Sharp Turns - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

carma143 · 12-08-2014, 11:25 AM

When I turn sharper than normal, I usually hear a single click on my left side (USA) that sounds just like when the seat is being locked into position from being closer or farther away from the steering wheel. My seat does not move to my knowledge.

Is something wrong?

to clarify, 'left side' inside the cabin or outside (or In-between/hard to tell)? Does the sound specifically come from the rear and left, middle and left, or front and left?

Does the sound stay consistent with seat configurations? Any buckles/silly things/small mammals in the back or under your seat?

My passenger seat adjustment bar rattles too. Try putt tv the seat in a different position

I believe this might be the rear package shelf sound issue... Something about a clicking sound during low speed turns such as in a parking lot.

There should be a TSB

It sounds like it is coming from in between the seat and the door to my left. It doesn't occur when I'm turning slowly, it happens when Im turning sharper than normal at 15+ mph.

Make sure you don't have trash anywhere on the floor, or something loose in the trunk. One time, I had this odd plastic sounding clunk every time I hit the brakes...turns out it was an empty bottle hitting the seat rail every time I accel/decel. Yes, I felt like tard after.

I know for sure what it's not: it's NOT a CV joint!

Now we all know and judge you for it.
