Hello,

I have an Acura TL 2004 with 125,000 miles on it. I have been noticing a weird noise when I accelerate and braking coming to a complete stop. I hear a "click noise." I tried to reproduce the sound and was able by holding in the brake and accelerating a small amount and I heard the click noise.

When I jacked the car up with the wheels still on I rotated the front wheel from left to right like a steering wheel and heard some clicking noises from what appears to be the CV axle.

Here is the video:

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

 

CV axle or wheel bearing would be my guess. Have you checked the CV dust boots to see if they're cracked or are getting dry?

 

Yes I have checked the CV boots. The rubber is fine on them. Not sure what else is going on. As you can see in the video I just move the tire back and forth and it makes that noise. I am not sure if that is normal is not you know?

 

With the car in park, it's hard to diagnose. Could be the parking pawl.
it's not like you drive in traffic with the car in park. Try jacking the entire 2 front wheels on neutral and try spinning, check in drive as well.

 

Bingo!!!!! That's certainly not CV joint noise.
Take the car out and drive in a circle to the left then right. If the joints are bad, you'll hear them. If they are really worn, there are other times that they may be heard, but do the circle test to confirm.

 

I will do that thank you. I also was just trying to see if this is a normal sound that the tire makes while is park.
