I've only had my macbook pro (13" basic model) since mid september, but the back casing seems loose. I'm able to push it in slightly (mostly at the front right and left) and whenever I do I can hear these clicks, as if its catching on something and forcing its way back into its natural position.

Just wondering if anyone else has had this? Was thinking of taking it to an apple store but thought I'd try on here first.

Thanks

The simple answer is…you have Applecare…take it to the Apple Store. Even if lots of folks here had the same exact problem…you would still have to go to the Apple Store to have it looked into.:)

Good luck,
