I bought my car used and the sound wasnt there. The sound is this. When the car is sitting with the tires straight and the engine running, when you move the steering wheel left to right when it starts to move the wheels theres a clunk. it only does it when you quickly move left to right. I took it in for warranty service and they changed out the steering column and the power steering gearbox.
Since the day I brought it in they have been saying its normal, yet changed those 2 parts. After the column, exactly the same. After the gearbox, it is better but its still there.
The 1st day i brought it in, the service manager tested 3 other 06 and 07 civics (non-si) and they didnt do it.
Could someone please go try this on the 07 si (4 dr even though i dont know if it matters) and tell me if it clunks also. I am out of warranty and want to keep this alive before they tell me to piss off cuz im over 36000.
Thanks SSSOOO much

I definitely don't think mine does it but I'll check next time I'm in it and report back.
Re: clunking in front end on '07 Si. is it normal?
i had an 07 Si in 08 and no it never made a sound.... till i rolled it over 3 times.... so if they give you anymore shit (and if you have the money) go get it seen by a ricer shop and see what they say
