Hit a puddle and get this grinding/ loose noise?

So yeah finally i have time to sit on this forum and post!

okay so here is my problem i don't know if it's a suspention issue or a tranny issue.

When i hit a puddle (very small) turning i notice a grinding noise but then it sounds like the suspention. Like its going up and down or something like a loose bolt.

it only happens when i hit water or its raining.

everything looks okay axles arn't ripped suspention is tight.

I just don't get it. It's only on my right side too.

any ideas?

Its your exhaust. There's a spot where the midpipe makes contact with the heat shield right underneath the E-brake (under the car). It's stupid, and Honda put a TSB out on it. Happens to a lot of us. Its some weird "spastic deformation" or other odd phrase that they use to describe it.
