Default annoying noise..

only when accelerating there is a noise like a clicking coming from the passenger
side towards the tire or far right of the engine bay
im guessing its not in the engine bay cuz its so loud and echoes when passing cars

*noise* sounds like when a kid puts a card on their bike wheel so the spokes hit it..
its closest to that noise..

thanks for any help..

Look at the wheel weights on the inside of the rim. See if they are rubbing anything.

Jack that corner up so the wheel is off the ground, grab the tire at 12 & 6 and rock back and forth. Movement = bad

It may be 3 & 9 for wheel bearings, I forget. Check both ways ones for wheel bearing ones for ball joints.
