My brand new Sole E95 elliptical trainer sounds like the "wheel of fortune". The clicking rate is proportional to the RPM. The repair guy came by and installed new "legs" but that didn't help.

  • I have an E95 and have never heard these noises and we have moved a time or two. I would look at the assembly instructions and make sure you havent missed anything big... Mine had a small issue but they were pretty responsive. Good luck and I hope you love yours as much as I love mine.

  • Mine had many small issues. Had a repair guy come over 4 times. Still it is clicking and groaning from everywhere. They are sending me a new one, but I just want my money back. Dick's is being difficult - giving me the run around.

  • I have the Sprit XE550 which is the exact same as the E95. Mine is whisper quiet like they advertise. I think that noise is coming from the wheel components inside. Dont know why the repairman would look anywhere else?? Contact the company directly, they do make a quality product and should replace the part needed without any problems. BTW, you should wear running shoes when on your elliptical (not socks) ;)

  • I got to wear socks otherwise I compromise head clearance (low ceiling basement) :)

    Sole is actually sending out a repair guy for the 4th time. He'll be here tomorrow.

    The last repair attempt actually made the noise worse. The have been replacing all kind of parts. I hope this time is the last time.

  • Not a big fan of the show and not a big fan of the ticking noises - I guess you could say I am a bit "ticked off"

  • My E95 has been through two service calls and is still making me crazy with clicking and popping noises. I can't belive I spent $1600 to bury myself in this grief. If someone stole it, I would cry tears of joy.

  • Might be a screw loose inside the wheel. Rolling around inside the casing.

  • WOF FTW.

  • Yeah. I heard bad things about Dicks, so I bought straight from Sole. Best machine ever!

  • Mine is also great. Sorry to read yours sucked. The guys who set mine up were a couple of jokers. I actually had the full delivery charge refunded cause they dropped it a few times. Idiots. Still though---No ticking noises. Is it better now?

  • My E55 is whisper quiet. Best purchase I've made in a looong time.
