axle click?

I started to hear some faint clicking sound coming from the rear passenger wheel. Almost sounds like the axle click I had on my old g35 coupe. Anyone else experience

Mine is an axle "clunk" on the rear driver side. Going to have it worked on whenever I get new rear tires.

I had the axle click. Brought it into the dealer, they knew what it was right away. They lube up the axle and rotate it. Quick fix.

its mostlikely the rear halfshafts need to be relubed. Helped out another member by discussing it with him. Its covered under warranty but will need the car most of the day.
