Hi everyone, I have searched the forums but can't seem to find a thread that covers my problem.
My MK1 1.6 Mx5 has developed a ticking noise that sounds like its coming from the front drivers side wheel. Its a constant noise that doesn't change with speed and only occurs when in gear and accelerating. I have been searching the web for hours trying to solve this but can't seem to find anything that covers it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as this is driving me insane.
Thanks in advance
James

All ready checked for that, annoyingly the noise is only there when in gear and accelerating its not there when revving in idle either.

Mate best bet is to look on Mx5oc forum or Mx5Nutz forum they will be able to help you if you get no luck here.
