im hearing a clicking sound from the rear of my car on the left side it sounds like somthings hitting my tire and rubbing and rubbing and a mix of a lose tire.... ford said it was the exaust hitting the lower control arms and drive shaft and tire, but i took it to scott at minute muffler and he looked at it for like 40min and we couldnt figure it out. It mostly happens around 25-35mph noticably on strightaways...any ideas?

If you've got a rock or nail lodged in your tire tread it'll make a clicking sound when it hits the pavement.

My car made a similar noise and I loosened the cat back readjusted it and the noise went away. My exhaust was hitting part of the subframe and brake line under accel.
