Clicking noise cominf from CAI

When I reverse i'm getting a clicking sound. The dealership took a look at the problem and said it was my AEM intake. Any solutions for this? They also said it shouldn'd be a problem for the future. Any help appreciated

leave it to the dealer to blame something they won't cover.

check the fitment of the tube through the fenderwell passthrough. If its not centered just right....it can come in contact with the fender and make a clicking/vibrating sound.

Yea the dealership told me my clicking noise was from the aftermarket wheels.

I was like what? So, I took my rims off and had my girlfriend drive my car and the noise was still there shifting into reverse and turning the wheel.

A bunch of BS from the dealership. They have found multiple excuses on why it is not their responsibility.

I plan on taking the car to a dealership north of me about 40 miles. They claim to be #1 in customer satisfaction in Northern Cali. There I am hoping we can finally get to the bottom of this.

I guarantee if I take my CAI out and replace it with my stock one that i'll still have the noise. But, I may just have to do it to get the warranty work done.

Keep us posted with your progress.
