The right rear wheel on my 2003 RR makes a solid clicking sound when I make a right turn from a stop, as if the spline of the half shaft is slipping. When this happens I can let-up off of the gas a little to stop it. It began after I had the right rear wheel off and hub hanging while checking the suspension.
My first thought was that the half shaft came out of where it connects, but I checked that as best I could, and couldn't see anything to suggest that as far as I could tell.
Now I'm wondering if maybe the wheel speed sensor is not reading the wheel speed, and causing something to slip (or not slip when it should) during a right turn.

Does anyone have ideas or experience on problems with a wheel slipping or clicking before?

I had a similar issue in that when cruising the drive to the rear wheels would slip. I had to let off the power to get it back. Turned out to be the drive shaft had become disengaged from the rear diff and when under power it would slip. This chewed up the rear diff and drive shaft beyond repair. If I was you I would check the diff end of the drive shaft as well as the hub end.

That's what I expected was the most likely suspect. I have looked at it as far as I could without pulling the half shaft out, but couldn't see anything wrong.
I'll have to dig deeper into it to look at it closer. I may already have done the damage.
Thanks for the help!

Mine was undrivable when I finally did something about it. I stupidly left it too long. If this is your problem hopefully you’ll catch it in time. It was a very expensive repair!! Good luck!

Luckily mine's not at that point yet. It's just where it only happens if I accelerate while making a right turn with a bit of "urgency" from a stop.
I'd better get to it.
Thanks for confirming that I'd better take it seriously.
