well i have recently got this ticking noise coming from the front right. i have hayames. its a ticking noise that only occurs when im cruising around 25-30mph on smooth roads. it has happened before when i had stock suspension and my dealer fixed it. they said something was loose. but now since i have aftermarket suspension i dont think they will even touch it. does any have this problem. its a very light tick tick tick noise that can only be heard with the windows up and radio off.

Did you check your 3rd nut? I checked everything and even bent my wrenches (tried very hard to tigthen it) and I still got noise. I had no idea what to do.

nah i know what noise the 3rd locknut makes when it is loose. the noise mine makes is hardly noticeable and ive had the problem with a stock suspension. i know that something is loose but i just cant figure it out and they never told me what was wrong when i had the stock suspension

Maybe you could go back to the honda dealership to find out what they did to it originally. They don't have to touch it but maybe they could just tell you what they did

does the noise go away when lightly applying the brake ?

nah it doesnt go away when slightly applying the brakes. i dont think the mechanic will remember since it was over 2 years ago. but i'll have to try that next time i go for my free oil change

try lossening the top strut bolts and spraying some white lithium grease on the top of the strut where it touches the car. Then re torque the strut bolts. I had the same kind of noise when I first got my car and this fixed it
