Clicking sound coming from the driver's side rear by the tire

Hi there, I have a 2000 Ford Expedition the Eddie Bauer Edition and I've had this vehicle since 2003. I have this clicking sound on the driver's side rear end of the vehicle. The sound is coming from the tire area. It only occurs when the vehicle is turning or driving slowly. The engine light isn't on, but I have had air suspension problems in the past, so just wondering if anyone can help?

    Curious, have you checked your rear tires for anything caught in the tread-small rocks, metal screw?

We just recently purchased a 2000 Expedition. It is wonderful shape but it has started making a ticking noise from under the hood , when you start it. Can anyone help us?Clicking sound coming from the driver's side rear  - 248c23f.jpg

    That ticking will eventually/probably/maybe be a spark plug about to pop out of the heads. The 5.4l is known for that. It's usually preceded by a ticking noise, then one day, bang! I've had 2 come out so far.

Check the parking brake shoes on the rear. You have to remove the disc. It is common for the brake pads to come loose from the brake shoe (I don't know why). They slide around and make a clicking noise at slow speeds as they slide and knock into each other. Centrifugal force keeps them from sliding as you increase speed.

    If you have had air suspension problems in the past, it could be that problem. My air suspension went down in my 2000 expedition they said i should have noticed signs but I didnt pay it any attention. The deal costs was too expensive. I went to strutmasters.com and bought a conversion kit that eliminated the air and fixed my expedition and saved me a couple thousand dollars with a lifetime warranty.

Need oil filter size for a 2000 ford expedition, eddie bower edition

First, it's an Eddie Bauer Edition (says so right on your truck).
Second, if you call ANY auto parts store, they will look it up for you, and probably even sell you one! (If they couldn't find it before, maybe it's because you misspelled Bauer!) ;)

I have a 2003 eddie bauer ford expedition, when im driving, i can hear a sound like air coming from a tire under the dash on the drivers side floor area. when i tap on my break the sound goes away, what...

A vacuum leak. Look & listen for hissing noise where rubber or nylon lines come through firewall under dash near brake pedal. Also look under hood at large hose going to back of brake master cylinder, power brake booster.

Could be voltage regulator or starter relay has also gone bad. Seems to be fairly common in the Bauer editions.

Clicking sound coming from the driver's side rear by the tire

Remove the rear rotors to check the emergency brake pads. The rivets can rust and the pads will slide around. They will click at slow speeds. Drove me crazy for weeks.
