'Click' under dash
Ok, I hope this should not have been posted in the newb section, but flame away if I screwed up. I figured the newb section was for things like, "What does 'MR' mean" or "What should be my first mod." ect...
From time to time I notice this light 'click' noise from under the dash (at least it sounds like it's under the center front part of the dash) whenever I let of the throttle. I can't here it after WOT or when cabin noise is high but it is there and present almost anytime the throttle is released from any position.
Anyone else notice this I just want to know what it is/if it's normal ect.. It does not sound like a BOV or any type of 'air' or turbo spool. It's a faint 'click' like a solinoid or something. Car is 100% bone stock.

Hmm Interesting. Well I'm still a total newbie when it comes to EVO's but I owned a VR4 for awhile which were notorious for getting a lifter tick. Which is a clicking noise from behind the dash. (Left side)

I get the click too. In my case it is very random and difficult to reproduce. I've noticed that it is temperature dependent, the hotter it is, the more it appears. It seems to originate somewhere in the front of the dashboard close to where it meets the windshield. Every attempt I've tried to isolate the location or fix it has been fruitless, so I've just learned to just deal with it.
