Weird Noise When At Speed
I have a 2005 with only 650 miles on it, but when I am driving at 20mph or higher I here a "click click click" noise that increases it's frequence the faster I go. It sounds like it's coming from the front passanger wheel, but I don't see any rocks in the tread or anything? Anyone had this happen or have any ideas on what is wrong?

well...
if you hear it increase with speed... its definitely spinning. If you checked the tire, and there is nothing in the tread...
Did you look at the inside sidewall? Maybe you picked up a nail or something that got ground down? Also, check the brake rotor.
Last... sometimes when a tire takes a hard hit (like a bad pothole), it can break the inner belting, although there is nothing showing on exterior.
If you checked everything that spins... try rotating the wheels front to rear, and see if that stops it. If so, then perhaps dismount the tire and have a look inside for the sake of safety.
