450 x 450 porcelain tiles were laid on the bathroom floor recently. One of the tile sometimes makes a clicking noise.

We have wooden floor in the bathroom and tiler put the Becker boards with screws and put some liquid/paint on Becker board for waterproof and then used adhesive for tiles.

I was wondering if only that one tile needs to be removed and then put it back with more adhesive?

A clicking noise isn't good. Usually means you're hearing movement. Hopefully not adhesive crumbling up. Do you know what make backer board were used and what make tile adhesive was used? Any bags still knocking around or receipt for the tiles have it on by chance?
