Hello all,

I have a 2003 E & its making a clunking noise espescially when it turns corners...not like a clicking noise that the CV's would make. It also happens when you back up while turning & come to a stop then it clunks like the a-arm is sliding front to back? Any ideas of what I should look at??? Thanks in advance :-)

welcome to eoc mr.clean,,i see your e is 4wd,,,are you getting vibrations when making tight turnes?? when was the last time you changed your rear diff fluid,,if you never did it,,i would start with that,,its very easy to do yourself,,just make sure you use honda fluid,,
