Hi

Hopefully someone can lend a few words of advice. I have a 2000
Peugeot 206 GLX 1.4 which has suddenly started making a strange
cliclking noise when the car is moving and either the accelerator is
not pressed or the clutch is pressed (i.e. when the vehicle is moving
forward under power the noise stops but when the vehicle is slowing or
just rolling forward without acceleration, then the noise starts).
Initially I thought something was interfering with the rotation of the
wheels as the slower the car goes the slower the ticking is, but I
have checked and can see nothing unusual (although I am far from a
mechanic!).

There does seem to be some vibration from the gear stick when the
ticking is present although other than that the vehicle appears to
drive normally. I am beginning to think I might have some sort of
problem with the clutch but any opinions would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Greg

The silliest things can sometimes be the answer.  Have you by any chance got
a stone stuck in the tyre tread.   If not, I am out of ideas.

The last time this happened to me it was a nice long self-tapping screw that
had worked its way into the tyre, so check your tyre pressures.  Even if
they are OK, it's still worth having a good look all the way around each
tyre because something like this can be self-sealing to begin with.  It
doesn't stay that way for long though...
