Clicking Noise coming from front...
Whenever I take a right hand turn in second gear, my car makes a constant loud clicking noise coming from the front of the car. This only happens in second gear. I've taken the exact same turns in 1st, and there is no clicking noise. But when I take it in 2nd, it makes the noise.
I brought it to the dealer...of course they couldn't get it to do it...I went down there, made the noise for them (not as loud as usual, but still you could hear it clearly)...I left...they called...said they couldn't figure out where the clicking noise was coming from....told me to bring it in on a day when its loud....Well, it happens on every right hand turn I make in second gear...I was thinking CV joint but I mentioned that to them and I'm assuming they checked it. Someone mentioned maybe it was my breaks didn't seat right...well, it still clicks when I'm coasting through the turns.
This is on a 5speed EX with 2500 miles...Anyone else ever have this problem?
Thanks
ps - saw a Titanium Civic yesterday for the first time...might be my new favorite color!!

man i have the same problem but only when im in first gear accelerating or when im making a left turn. the sound is a loud clicking noise coming from the right wheel well and its really bugging me. It started right after i installed my progress springs. my friend keeps telling me that its the exhaust piping from my magnaflow catback that's hitting the sway bar... but now im beginning to question that.
I had some sportline springs installed, and the next day I hit a really hard bump. My car started making a clicking noise when I would turn left. I took it back to the shop where I had the springs installed. They said I had knocked the spring out of the groove they fit into, or something to that effect (I'm not much on the technical side, so bare with me). Since the spring wasn't sitting right, it was causing the rubber or plastic piece that is wrapped around the spring to rub whenever I would turn. In turn, it was causing an awful clicking sound. Hope this helps.
sounds exactly like a thread before... I personally think it's the brake pads adjusting themselves because of the momentum moving them around. But it could be a totally different problem like the relay clicking on and off for the car bomb someone planted.
But seriously, if the dealer was stupid enuf to say they didn't know and send you on your way, then it's time to get on their *** and make someone find out. Because any way you look at it, it's an annoying noise and shouldn't be there.
