My UK MY00 has developed a loud click type noise which is coming from just over my right shoulder. It happens when I go over a bump, sometimes even a very small one and only does it once (until the next bump), I'm going to investigate fully later but just wondered if anyone on here has the same thing and hopefully cured it?
Cheers.

Thanks for the suggestion, but its still clicking. Has anyone taken the trim off around the top seat belt mount? It's a big bit of plastic that goes right down to the A pillar. the click seems to be coming from the top belt mount.
Help me please!!!

Try moving the belt mount up or down to a different setting and see if it makes a difference?

Mine makes what seems like a similar click, I've had all the trim off, and there isn't anything there to make a noise.
I reckon mine is a spot weld that's not welded, and as the shell twist's a fraction the metal clicks, drives me bl**dy nuts!
I'have yet to take the trim off again and spray in the sectioj with something like Waxoyl, hopefully that might cure it.

PS, get a full scoobysport system, and then drive iwth the seats down, you won't hear the click!!!

Hi Ron,
I hate to say it but mine sounds like it could be the same thing. It does seem to be related to chassis flex. Let me know if you have any success with the waxoyl trick.
Cheers.
