Clicking Problem

I'm having problems with a clicking sound. I can't tell if it's from the front or back, I've been told it's the front and I hear it from the back when I'm driving. It starts to click when I take off, when I downshift from 3rd to 2nd, and when I hit a bump. I've been to two dealerships and they keep telling me the same thing, "I can't hear it." I'm still under warranty and I want to get this fixed before it expires. Can you tell me what it is or has any of you had the same problem?

I also recently got a Corsa Touring Catback put on and ever since then when I turn off the car I has a loud clicking sound as well. I know it's probably just the exhaust cooling off, but is there anyway of controling it because it's very loud and obnoxious?


BTW I heard the 1st clicking before I put the exhaust on, so I know it's not the same sound.

if you're hearing it from the front and back you might have some kind of clearance issue with your suspension. It seems you're hearing it while the suspension is shifted, wiether its from a weight transfer under downshifting or on a bump. Who installed your springs?

I heard it before the springs were put on so I know it's not that.
