The sound of the car's legs clicking often indicates a problem with the car's engine. As a car owner, such a condition will certainly make you feel anxious while driving it. 

Therefore, it is important to know which components have the potential to produce clicking sounds. Here is a complete explanation. 

1. Stabilizer Bar

This car engine component has the task of maintaining the height level between the right and left wheels. Including when the wheels receive suspension forces in its system. 

Usually, the stabilizer bar component is located on the front right and left wheels. For those of you who do not know, the shape of the stabilizer bar is almost similar to two ball joints

If this component is damaged, it will produce a very disturbing sound. Moreover, if the car is accelerated and driven. The sound will become louder when the car is turning. 

Because the working system of the stabilizer bar will cause the car's legs to make clicking sounds when the car is maneuvering. Therefore, perform regular checks. 

2. Ball Joint

Some of you may know that there are ball joints within the stabilizer bar. It turns out that if this part is damaged, it will produce clicking sounds when the car is driven. 

In fact, sometimes the sound caused by the damage to this part sounds unusual. The function of this component is to serve as a hinge for the wheel's rotation when turning.

3. Tie Rod End

It is important to know that the Tie Rod End is the end of the steering system. The Tie Rod End component connects the power steering arm with the steering knuckle on the car's wheels. 

This component also has a ball joint as a hinge similar to the stabilizer bar. If the ball joint on the Tie Rod End starts to wear out, it will produce clicking sounds.

A damaged Tie Rod End not only causes the car's legs to make clicking sounds, but it can also cause the steering to wobble. This can be very dangerous for the driver. Therefore, always perform regular checks and servicing. As a means, have the servicing done at an official workshop that has original spare parts.

4. Shock Absorber

For those of you who are not familiar with car leg components, the shock absorber is a component that functions to dampen shocks in the car. 

Visually, this shock absorber is shaped like a tube located inside the spiral spring of the front wheels. One common damage is a leak in the tube.

To avoid clicking sounds, you need to check this component. Excessive suspension movement can cause strange sounds when the car is accelerated. 

Moreover, if the car is moving and passes over a bumpy road, it will potentially cause the car's legs to make clicking sounds.

To avoid the car legs producing clicking sounds, you should frequently perform regular servicing. 

Especially on components that are prone to damage as explained in this review. The goal is to maintain the car's performance and avoid clicking sounds when driving the car.
