pop/click type noise when reversing

[luke15]

that when i change from reverse to 1st gear that there is a pop/click type noise, i've only just noticed it. i usualy have my i-pod on before i move off but didn't have it on on heard it, i had my windows down too.

anyone know if this is standard or should i be taking it to a garage?

Might it be just the gear stick dropping back to normal position when you move it out of reverse?

if it is actually when you change direction it might be the pads moving in the calipers - normal. if it is when you move the gearstick out of reverse, it is probably just the gear linkage your hearing - normal.
if it is worrying you though it may be worth having a mechanic listen to the noise just to reassure you.

this morning the noise went away but the as i was pulling away from work 1st to 2nd gear as i put my foot on the gas i heard it then? is it the gas valve opening i can hear? (sorry not too mechanically minded)
