That makes me think then it is the CV joints. Mine has only done it a few times...always caught in high, with a rapid acceleration turning into traffic.

It does sound lime CV joints with frequency of what I expect is each ball in each rotation.
That may be different from mine. I don't think the frequency of the clicks changed based on speed or rotation.

The clicking frequency may slightly increase with more load/torque applied though. But not by much.

Might be then. Mine sounds just like bad CV joints....but only when in high and under full throttle or near. Only from back. And I have only heard it like 2 times in 35k. But when it does it...it is very obvious.

I will have service look at eventually when I have other reasons to be in....
