Does it happen when you turn? If so its your axle.
Look inside the front tires and see if you see any greese flying everywhere.

Re: problem in my civic (Luserkid)
Explain it a bit better.
Are you hearing it when you are inside the car or outside the car?
Is it after you have taken a long ride?
Where do you think it is coming from: the front or rear of the car?

Also, how many times is it happening? Really fast? Slow? Once? Repeatedly?
I wonder if maybe you're starting to hear a valve tick? Just a thought, but it's probably axles.

Can't really say it is the axles until he explains a bit better.

Re: (JRI94)
Not axles then.
I am thinking maybe an engine mount, the exhaust moving a bit, etc...
What happens when, in neutral, you hit the gas, does it click also?

Re: (civic_stunna)
Ok, then we can exclude anything related the engine mounts and stuff.
THis is difficult to diagnos over a web connection.
How about if, from a dead stop, you let the car coast on its own, like on a hill, does it do it?
How about in reverse from a dead stop?

Re: (civic_stunna)
Ok so now we know that it is probably related to either the suspension or the tranny in some way...
I would suspect it is simply a loose of shaffing suspension component. You will have to get underneith the car and have a looksee. Have a friend over and try to identify what side it is coming from.
I don't think it is the axles. But you may want to try going in circles in reverse. If you hear a CONSTANT click, then it is the axles. But i doubt it.

Re: (civic_stunna)
You make sure you put the gears in all the way right? Im thinking you leave it out a little and when you start moving it will click and then go in once you start driving.
If you were missing a few teeth in the transmission youll be going in and out of gear and not having a good ride at all, atleast thats what i would see what happens.
This might sound like nothing but get your tranny flushed. How long ago did you do that if ever?
