I had to change a tire and the car jack that came with my 2003 3.2tl  seemed
to operate somewhat awkwardly making loud clicking noises at odd intervals
when I was using it to raise the car.  I definitely put the jack under the
reinforced area.  The loud clicking noises were coming from the jack itself.
I don't recall these types of jacks as being noisy in operation, so I want
to make sure nothing is defective.

Is it normal for the kind of car jack included with the 2003 Acura 3.2 TL to
make loud clicking noises when raising the car?  (The clicking noises seemed
to happen at odd intervals in time)

Thanks,

J.

If it is a normal scissor jack it may be bent.  Had a Honda Accord scissor
jack in which the car rocked back slightly and bent the jack.  It would make
a funny sound as well but I think it was fairly uniform.
