Default clicking noises, 2001 A6

hey everyone,

recently my a6 started making clicking noises similar to the ones it makes when blinking for a turn. the thing is, that it keeps doing these noises even after the turn!!! does any one know what this is related to?

If: noise comes from the outside, and sounds like you have a nail in the tire, and you have more than 60K miles on the car... Then you probably have an outer CV joint boot that tore and now the CV joint is bad. The CV joint boot is obvious to see bad. There will be grease all over the outer part of the wheel housing. Check it out. If both boots are clean, then it is something else....

The hazard relay switch (center of dash board) controls the blinker. It clicks a lot if it is bad. Do your blinkers ever skip or blink real fast or not at all?
