Does it only make the popping noise when you are moving or does pop if you're parked in the driveway turning the wheels?? If it only pops while driving it may have something to do with the spinning tire...

Oh boy the information here...

Your suspension should not be making popping noises. Bring it to your dealer and have them fix it. It's a common suspension problem on the rsx's. Don't let the dealer b.s. you and tell you it's ok. You paid them for the car, make sure they fix it. It's not a recall but they have service notices <-- that's right plural out there telling them in detail how to fix those popping suspension noises.
Lubing your suspension huh? Maybe you should ask them what they really used the lube for, rip off bastards.

Your suspension should only be popping at very low speeds or simply with your car parked and you turning the steering wheel.

Bring it to the dealer and have them fix it. They're well aware of the problem like I said.
