When does this occur? braking, turning, accelerating ???? Have you had it checked at your dealer? 2 or 4 WD ??< id="gwProxy" ="">< ="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" ="">

the model is 4wd and occurs during braking and sometimes can be heard just after breaking (while resuming speed) so i would not say during acceleration,it can also be heard while turning.all of this of course is at low speed it might happen at higher speed i just cant hear it.the dealer did the brake service which included new bads resurface rotors front and rear and brake fluid line flush.the service department sais the noise was drivline noise and or rocks in the wheels.i am not a mechanic but the noise sounds very similar to the noise a cv joints makes when its failing.thanks for your intrest and certainly any advice you might have

I remember reading a post on this website about 2 weeks ago and turned out gentleman had his brakes done and the non Nissan mechanic put it back wrong, ( it was s 4X4)the clip on the axle hub was put on in the wrong order. I am not able to find the post, does anyone know of a search feature with this website?

Any damage to the axle boots, grease coming out? How about any play in the front wheel bearings? U-joints ????< id="gwProxy" ="">< ="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" ="">

just to update it seems the problem or noise does not occur when 4wd is engaged so im thinking its more of a hub issue does anybody have suggestions or cost estimates?

so i took my truck back in to the dealer and had them check everthing out and they say its not in the brakes or hubs,they claim the noise is coming from the transfer case but have know idea what is causing this.so here is a new question has anybody heard of this problem,again its a cliccking noise that is heard when brakes are applied i would say moderate to hard at lower speeds,the clicking is in time with deceleration,again i have know idea what it is and unfortunately neither does the dealer,any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated
