Mine was nowhere near spec from the factory and thats why mine clicked. Tightened them and it went away.

Mine went away after a clean. Had the dealer do it and it has been 6 months without returning.

I have this same problem. Almost resembles the sound of having a screw in my left front tire and the noise speeds up the faster the tire rotates. I only notice it when turning right when my window is down. I torqued my lugs to 140 and the noise is still there. I plan on making a trip to the dealer, but if someone has a solution I would rather not make the visit.. Did you ever resolve the problem?

If you have a 1LE it is most likely the bolt for the sway bar. Mine was fixed under warranty, all they do is retighten to proper torque spec and add loctite

This. The problem is oxidation that grows at the hub/wheel interface. It becomes a fulcrum and causes the wheel to rock & make the clicking noise as it rotates when under cornering loads. DIY solution: 1. remove wheel 2. clean wheel & hub mating surfaces with a wire brush... scrub off the oxidation. 3. wipe both wheel and hub clean with a good cleaning solution. You need to get them very clean. 4. apply a VERY THIN layer of white lithium grease to the mating surfaces. 5. re-mount wheel and torque to 140 ft-lbs. |

Thank you for that write up! My car has 12k miles so I was a bit skeptical that this would be the issue. I figured I would try it since I really didn’t want to go to the dealership, tried this method and it got rid of the annoying clicking issues I was having. |

Thanks to the guys above in this thread. Finally pulled my wheels, cleaned and torqued to spec and no more click. I didn't check the torque first, but just from breaking them loose, there's no way they were all at spec.
