Clicking Sound in front

This is really starting to bother me, i have an 05 TL and in the mornings or after work when i first put the car in reverse it goes into gear but then i hear a clicking sound that seems to be coming from the front passenger side wheel , i can also hear a click while i drive from time to time in the same area. Anyone have this problem? normal or big problem?

I've noticed maybe twice now in the 5 weeks I've had my 07, it makes a similar sound when I reverse, but it seems to be coming from the extreme rear (like under the bumper) - could just be my perception of where it's coming from. Otherwise, never heard it. The first time it went for maybe 4 seconds, the other time it was quicker, like maybe a second at most...

Have no idea what it was / is?

I'm getting a clicking sound on my '06 6MT after a shift. It happens when I let the clutch out and then get back on the gas.

I did a search and there are a bunch of threads. It may be the clips on the Brembos or something in the axle.

I have the exact same thing just started last month on my 04 6mt. Sounds like it's coming from the front wheels somewhere, it's a real slight clinking sound but very annoying, sounds like it's coming from the front drivers wheel, it's only on the shifts or the starts and stops.

Yup, my 05' TL had the same thing and it sounded like it was coming from the passenger side wheel too.

I bought an 07' TL-S and it does it, but very rarely now.

I think its normal on our cars for some reason.

My 05 did it only on take off and stops.

Same Problem

I get the same sound every time I take off from a dead stop from my 05' w/auto transmission. Sounds like front driver side wheel.

I heard clicking sound coming from my 04 5AT so I brought it back to Acura to have a look. At the same time I notice clicking/clanking noise when shifting to reverse and vice versa. Acura said the noise is not normal and since my car is still under warrenty they replaced my transmission and also replaced both CV joints that caused the clicking noise.
