Have your lower control arms checked.
took my car to the dealership today to have axles put in but they said it wasnt the axles after they order them and really check out my Balt ss\sc.

The noise happens mostly in 1st to 2nd gear and going in reverse.
they put it on the lift" drive on one" and was able to see the play in the lower control arms making the click\pop noise."bushing suck ass

Ps... just to let you all know the lower control arms are on a national back order.
so this is telling us this is a common problem and should be a recall but GM has not made it one.

WTF GM

 

haha dam so tahts why changing my axels 8927472 times and it still makes the noise, so is there a way we can get aftermarket control arms?

 

Yes, If we could get aftermarket, That would be great

 

I was looking my self on that also.

Have them check out your low control arm, willing to guess that will fix it after all

 

I will check mine tomarrow at work

 

The bushing suck ass.
Cant we just get polys and have them press in, im wondering??

 

i get tht noise ll the time going into 1st nd reverse. so if this is true then its the control arm bushings?

 

yeah imma look at mine tomorrow also

 

i have this problem as well and thought axles thanks for posting this up

 

wouldnt doubt it at all

GM knows about this and no recall!!!

nation backorder .....TELL ME IT A BIG PROBLEM.

Hope I help you all fix your noise after all.
Its been fustrating I tell you, makes car sound like a real POS

No Problem , That what we are all here for to help one another out.

 

Yes, Its not even like a quite noise. You can hear it form a mile away I think, Its so damn loud

 

Mods I request this be a sticky.
To stick it to GM

 

get the prothane polys cabs for intense
i just replaced my set of JBPs cuz they failed

 

i dont hear clicking noises, but sometimes i hear voices...

 

I was checking out the clicking with a buddy of mine and we noticed that the brake pads were moving up and down when you forwarded and reversed ,making the clicking noise twice each time the pads hit the end of the calipers.
But I will check for the bushing play also and get it to the dealer if thats the case.

 

I just checked on the lower arms and there is quite a few places that GM has plenty of. They are not on backorder. Here's the numbers that my catalog pulls up and says that is in stock by GM.

15803766 - LH : Lansing, MI facitlity number "076" has 56 of them. It's the only one that is showing up on the locator.

15803767 - RH : Boston, MA facility number "055" has them. I think that's the closest to you.

 

Well gol be damn, they came in today
The lower control arms will be put in tomorrow.
I will let the forum know how it goes and if that cured the clicking\pop noise.

Wish me luck
Talk to forum tomorrow

 

Yes, Please let us know, I will be watching very closely

 

im surprised you guys dont have aftermarket LCA's already anyway...that would MASSIVELY help your traction and wheel hop issues.

 

No doubt .
Im hoping this cures the headaches a lot of us been going through.
With this common noise.

Should be posting back around 5-6pm "eastern time" tomorrow.

 

are you sure that its not the clutch weights? thats what i always thought it was

 

dealer said they see movement in the control arms on both sides they claim.
noise is coming from both sides.

 

I was going to upgrade them anyway. Thanks for the solution! +rep

 

go figure...i have been saying this to others for a very long time and this was just another "can not duplicate"

one other thing that its a dead givaway, when i take off in first at part throttle i get a light shimmy felt through my steering wheel.
