if you drive on a freeway or a road that has gaps on the concrete that's what the lil pop is coming from! j/p

maybe some lubrication needs to be done on your car... bring it to the dealership!!!

Not everyone has those noises, most people on here with altered suspension have some type of noise. Nothing big though.

I fixed it! The other day im driving up to see the Hot August Nights show and it started making the popping noise crazy fast and loud. So i pull over and am looking at my front right rim and checking to see if anything is hitting. So i pull out my lug wrench to give the lugs a good tightening and they were so freakin loose -i couldn't believe it, it scared the crap out of me. And one of the lugs had snapped the thread and was just barely hangin on. So i took that lug off, tightened the hell out of the other 3, tightened all the rest and the noise is totally gone. I got it all the time and not it totally stopped. But now i have to pound the broken screw out of my axel shaft and put a new one on..which kinda sucks

man i totally though that would do it. I cleaned my rims up really good the other day, and after it was making that popping noise for a while there was a lot of crap on my rims. So i thought somethin was nailin the spokes. I thought it might be the brake line but that is way too short to reach the rim.

I got a pop at a dead stop or at slow speeds when I turn all the way right. It was because when I did my springs, I didn't mark where the two upper plastic strut mounts came off in relation to each other. When I look at where my struts mount from under my hood and turn my wheels, I can actually see when they pop. I'm gonna take my strut out tomorrow and see if I can figure out which way they should go in.

Hey, how did you get that done for free? Is your ride still under warranty? Looks like mine is doing the same thing. A non-Honda tech was quoting me $250 for the job.

Thanks.
