    Back of car is tapping...

    Here’s one that I hadn’t heard before, there is a ticking/tapping noise coming from the driver side rear of my car, when I drive. The noise is almost like one would hear if a wheel had a metal valve stem or something tapping against the wheel but I have run of the mill rubber stems and caps.

    Has anyone heard something like that before?

    Get it up on really solid stands with the suspension compressed and see if you can replicate in the driveway. I had a similar noise after doing some exhaust work and found out it just a large zip tie sliding on the driveshaft and tapping on the balance weight. Simple but annoying.
