Seeing if anybody has had this same problem, i was told it was the cv axle, not sure though. Whenever i turn right and going at a farily slow speed, a ticking noise comes out of the front right part of the car, kinda by the wheel, ive taken it to honda and they've checked the cv boots (i beleive thats what they said) and said it all checked out fine.
Anyone delt with this before, any help would be greatly appreciated

i had my local honda dealership check the CV boots(?) the rubbery part and they said it was fine, as far as the actual axes go, they said that was fine too, but everyone ive talked to said its more then likely my axle........ugh does anyone wanna buy a civic

just cause the rubber boot is fine doesn't mean that the axle hasn't gone bad.

and if you want to sell you car because you have to replace the axles, i'll buy it for 100$. cause thats what new axles will cost.

You can buy new axles from autozone for around 70 dollars. I had the same clicking on mine, had the axles replaced and it didnt fix it. Mine ended up being a bad ball joint. Only thing is you cant just replace the ball joint, you have to replace the lower arm and have new bearings pressed in. If you need more help I can give you more.. even walk you through replacing it if you need.
