If you have a protective cover over it, it usually prevents the jack from plugging in all the way. If it has an equaliser, you may want to adjust that. My last guess is that if you're using those fatty headphones, and you're using the wrong jack converter- either 1.5 or 3mm.
One thing unique to ipods is the ability to adjust the sound to play exclusively on one specific earbud. This may mess with your cars audio system.
can someone help me, i have the EXACT same one shown in the video, i tried your method on the video and it didnt work, it keeps making that clicking noise. :[
@Exsentric I tried moving out the centre cog before, but it didn't work (for me at least). Someone recommended putting vaseline or some type of lubricant on the cogs to reduce the noise back in the comments section somewhere.
@stelthmunky well what i found out was, that it might not be the tape, i put a different tape into my car and the same thing happened, it kept rewinding so now idk, it might be the radio
@TheMitchellhart In some cases, that part isn't smoothed well and at times blocky which restricts its ability to spin properly effecting the other cogs. Cause of that, the tape gets ejected. There's other ways to work around tape problems- this one way worked for me.
Myself, I've always had a problem with annoying cranking, squeaking, and rattling noises. I fixed this though. If you pause this at 0:51, you will see the three main cogs in the center. If you carefully lift those out (paying attention to their configuration), and put a dab of Vaseline where the large center cog rubs against the casing, and on both sides of the smaller cogs. This essentially creates a soft suction between all the parts, and eliminates the plastic on plastic crime. Cheers.

@boutdempapers I tried that. /: Didn't work for me. I guess different adapters have different cures.

@fuji212 Ya, I do get a rattling noise, but @ekulrialb gave me an awesome solution. Can't wait to try it out.
