Clicking Noise When Turning

Usually on start ups when I turn the wheel ( pulling out of driveway/parking lot) I get a clicking sound/ feeling in the floor/pedals. I can feel it in the floor board and it's a relatively loud sound.

I have about 350 miles on the car now. I found the exact problem in this thread https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=372454 and through PM he said a new clutch was installed and the "click" hasn't come back.

Has anyone else experienced this?

generally in most cases clicking, means axles. But without hearing the exact sound I couldnt say for sure. I'm assuming you have a GSR? 5spd? Maybe the sound he was having was axles but during the clutch replacement they "set" the axles in better. Just a theory..

Thanks for the response and yes it's a GSR. Instead of saying "clicking" I should have said click. It's one click and I can hear/feel it right in the floor boards on the driver side.

I was thinking maybe it has something to do with a "system" kicking on? I'm hoping someone else has noticed this and it's not just me.

Hrmm must be some sort of relay, or actuator of some sort. I don't own an X yet, but I'm buying one this spring I would take it to a dealer, and see if they know what it is.

My Evo X MR does this as well, and so does my friend's 04 STI. I'm thinking it has something to do with the AWD system, but I don't know much about these cars mechanically.

I get this all time in my GSR, most of the time I get it going over speed bumps though.
