Have any of you guys experienced a muffled clicking that you can slightly feel in the steering when turning at slow speeds? It seems to happen just after I start the engine when am backing out of a parking space. Can't really tell if it happens when engine is warm or cold. :confused:

I think it's a common problem amongst several on this forum. I experience a knocking or rattle in the steering column when I'm turning and go over some uneven pavement (and I mean just the slightest change in pavement). Or even while straightline driving kinda slow through a neighborhood over some rougher pavement, the steering column or something down through there knocks badly. I just haven't said anything to the dealer, I have enough annoyance problems as it is. Heck, every time I take off from a stop I hear a popping sound come from the front end. I can't tell if it's the tranny or suspension. It's done it for nearly the life of the car so I've just lived with it.

I'm having the same problem. I'm thinking its the suspension. I'm dropping my car off at Honda today. I'll let you know what happens.

I forgot to ask people who have this problem whether they have any mods or not. I am completely stock .

No mods stock. I should get a call from the dealer soon. I dropped it off. They were a little annoyed about the lug nut too haha.

i havent noticed anything like that, but if i did, i would suspect something was wrong in my CV joints and quickly get them checked, and maybe re-packed.

It turns out it was a cv joint. My dealer is replacing it free of charge.
