Is it a sample that you are looping? Could be quircks at the end. Try shorten the loop cycle or crossfading more in sampler. Are you also fiddling with the pitch envelope? Can produce weird clicks!

I agree with Kozak, but instead of shortening your loop cycle (you still want 4.0.0) I say right-click on the "5" marker to create a warp marker, and drag that a little to the left until your loop sounds even. Unless there's a gap at the start of your loop, in which case adjusting the sample start time to the right should fix it.
