Hi, I have a 2006 Civic LX Sedan, 188,000 miles. A few weeks ago I had to have my muffler replaced. Since then, I've heard an occasional pop, or maybe thunk sound. Just a single sound, not continuous or repeating. I don't know if it's related to the muffler or not, but I never noticed it before that, and I've heard it almost every day since then.
It sometimes happens right after I turn the ignition, while the car is still stationary. It also sometimes happens when accelerating from a stop, or as I complete a turn on a city street. I haven't ever heard it when already going a moderate speed.
I took it to a shop couple days ago but they weren't able to hear the sound. It doesn't happen consistently.
I thought it was coming from the muffler, but I'm starting to doubt myself now. Maybe it is from under the hood. I've tried to look for youtube videos that sound similar, but nothing has matched.
If anyone has any suggestions of what this might be, what to look for, etc., I would really appreciate it.
Thank you very much!
