clanking sound
Lately I noticed that my RSX has been making a clanking sound. It starts to clank whenever I am going over mild bumps, starting to think it might be the tie end rods or the ball joints. Any thoughts?

my buddy actually has that exact same problem. We think it might be the suspension. It was explained to me that the springs are a reverse wound setup. It was sugested that putting aftermarket suspension on the car *might* fix the problem.

If I remember correctly it's an 05-06 base in VBP. I wasn't aware of the base having the same popping sound as the Type S, hmmm let me think about this one.

Oh, and Michelle has the base and the Acura service bulletin specified both models. Hers was done, too.
It's just that he said, "clanking" and most other people used the word, "popping".
