Now that it is tax return time, I'm trying to get everything I can do my self fixed. When I drive the car and it is a smooth flat surface I hear a clicking sound from the driver side rear suspension. I'm thinking it is the solenoid but since I can't be out side of the car when it does it, I'm kind of lost as to what else it could be. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Possible on the solenoid because arent they on the bags themselves? The parking brake makes sense also but youd have to do some looking around to really know. Just up the back of the car and spin some wheels.

Thanks you guys. As soon as I can get her out of the garage and to the "hobby shop" I'll take a look at the parking brake.
Before anyone ask, the "hobby shop" is what the self serve auto shops on Navy bases in Hampton Rroads Virginia are called.

My car makes a clicking noise in the rear and I discovered that the linkage that connects to the parking brake assembly makes a clicky noise. That could be it

Its the parking brake shoes. I had it fixed at the dealer once. Lasted 5 years and started again. I just let it go now.
