I'm thinking maybe every 35,000 (like when mine first occurred) to 40,000 (like when yours first occurred). I traded mine with 44, 000 miles on it , but the problem had NOT returned. Good luck.

I guess it's safe to assume that if the car is out of warranty, they won't do this for free right?

So is this basically slop in the diff? I've got the same problem at 55xxx kms.
I also can't download this on my phone and don't have a pc

Really no pc??

Anywhoo....that click is on the halfshaft where it is bolted to the wheel hub, u have to remove the wheel and get a #32 socket and tighten that bolt, of course u shold grease the halfshaft to hub connection (and not the slide in connection (with 177weight or 77 icant remember), rather where they hit and stop on eathother), but indidnt do it and found my bolts where loose. After that was done i had no more click.
