Topic: Should my DS4 controller be making clicking sounds?

My brand new DS4 controller is 3 weeks old, but it’s been making these weird clicking sounds from the start. Are these sounds normal? Some people said that I need to break it in, but I’ve been using it pretty regularly for the last 3 weeks. Is this an issue? How should I fix this issue if it is one? Thanks!

Mine make a clicking sound when pushing in the thumbsticks as L3 & R3, but apart from that no clicking and wouldn't expect any?

@Kidfried I see that makes sense. I also have a DS4 V2, so it makes sense that I should not be having that issue. I guess I’ll return it and see if it’s a problem with my new controller and if it’s a problem with all new controllers in general. The DS4 is definitely really comfortable. I’m very happy with it aside from this clicking issue.

@Panic_Attache Oh okay so that shouldn’t be happening. I’ll go ahead and return the controller then. Hopefully it’s not an issue with my new controller as well.
