Hsld Dying????
The other night I was pulling out of my parking spot when I thought I heard some clicking sounds that seemed to be coming from the differential of my 02 6spd HLSD. To confirm the clicking sound, I decided to do some testing in the empty parking lot by making left turn circles. Sure enough, anywhere close to full lock and under moderate acceleration the car was making clicking noises from the front wheel area. The same thing was happening on right turn circles. Has anyone experienced or heard of similar problems coming from the front wheel drive area of the car. Note no sounds are ever made under brisk acceleration when the wheels are straight. This only appears to be happening on tighter turns under moderate acceleration. Also this is somthing that I've noticed only recently. There are 40K km on the car now.
Cheers,
Rudy

I am not sure, but I think I heard similar sound on my 2002, I don't have HLSD...
Stupid Nissan, can't fix problems that were on the car years ago.
