Weird.

I pop off the driver's side wheel and poke around. Caliper is tight. No rotation slap on the pads. No movement in the hub back and forth, side to side. U-joints are all solid. No rubbing on the wheel, wheel weights or calipers. The only thing amiss was the o-ring on the dust cap got squished and wasn't set right.

I put it all back together, and with a shrug and high hopes I take it out for a drive and coast it snake-wise through the quiet neighborhood down the hill.

The noise is gone!

I shred around town for a few minutes, then come back and test it again down the hill.

No noise!

Now, what the hell? I'll have to keep an ear out for it. I didn't see anything that would be causing the clicking noise.

Oh, well...
