Wiper relay clicking noise

I've recently begun noticing a clicking noise whenever my wipers are engaged. It sounds like a relay click and happens right before wipers start a sweep.

As my car's warranty is going to expire soon, I want to get things fixed before it does. I wonder if this is normal or not. Could this be a sign of the relay failing?

I don't remember hearing this clicking noise before, but it might have been there the whole time.

Otherwise my car has had no problem at all in the last four years. Simple oil and fluid change as directed by the MID is all that it needed. The car is amazingly solid and fun to drive.

While my lease is going to expire soon, I love the 1st gen RDX so much that I'm inclined to buy it out. That's the main reason I'm concerned about the clicking noise.


Many thanks.

I don't have any odd noises anymore. Pretty much gone through everything and fixed it.
.but.Why not take it in. The least they will do is tell you there's nothing wrong with it.

Thanks for the input. Yeah, I'll just bring it in and have them take a look. Can't hurt.
