Hi,

I just get a Kizashi (2011). I'm from Montreal South Shore (Quebec, Canada).

I have a question that run in my head each time i came down from my driveway.

So, when i came down my driveway (notting big - 5% hight unevenness), i heard a clic (front/under/wheel) after a short dive (at about 20 feet).

Somebody know if there is something that unlock ? What is this clic / noise ?

Thank you.

Hi Tomstiker

I have the same noise. Mine seems to be coming from the right hand side, but yours might be different with left hand drive.

It sounds like a spring is making a "twang" noise, generally when I first drive off in the car and generally only when it hasnt been driven for quite a while.

I asked my dealer to check it out on the first service, but they couldnt get it to make the same noise.........yet when I drove out the next day...."TWANG"!
:roll:

Wonder how many other people are experiencing it? Mine is also a 2011 model, manual transmission.

mine, too; an AWD S

I believe-but-cannot-confirm it's the ABS system completing its self-check.
