Engine makes strange noise during deceleration and initial acceleration
I just bought a brand new 2011 Honda Civic LX-S last month. The engine makes a very pronounced "click"/"knock" noise/sound (similar to an engine knock, but with a bit of a "click" to it as well) EVERY TIME I decelerate, especially from low gears/speeds. It seems like something is definitely wrong. Any idea what might be causing this?

i have a 2007 civic and i have the same kind of problem. When accelerating from a stop and decelerating in lower gears it makes a click, but only does it once. I have also had someone drive my car and make it click while i listened from the outside and i was not able to hear it. I am certain its not the cv joint. The only other thing i can think of is the brake caliper shifting, but then i feel like i should be able to hear the clicking in ever gear. Any ideas?
