Question Ticking noise from CV/Brake ?

Hi Guys

I have noticed a ticking noise left rear area of the car in recent weeks

I wasn't able find any threads on this in the milano section

Reading through a old alfetta manual they suggest it may be the CV boot is gone or is dry

Has anyone had a similar scenario ?

Thanks in advance

Nick

Talking re ticking

Have you checked the CV boot is it spilt open if so dirt and road grim enter the joint and basically destroy the CV

The inward & outbound boots are both in decent condition with no splits that I could find

On the weekend I will have a look and see if its not the caliper itself

Re ticking noise

Just a thought have you checked tyre for a nail or screw embedded in Tyre as i have had this happen a few times sometimes they go in but don't make tyre go flat ????
