Default weird...

Theres a weird noise coming from my front drivers side wheel area.

It only seems to ahppen when im turning and theres a little bit of a dip or if I'm turning into my driveway to pull into the garage.

I dont have my car lowered or aftermarket rims. Its just plain ol stock.

Think theres a bolt that needs to be tightend?? Myabe the mud guard and the tire hitting for split second??

Check that bolts that hold spring/ shock to the strut-tower are not backing themselves off...

Is it kind of like knocking noise? Several other people on here complained of that also including me. It was while turning right and going through a dip or over a bump. Came from left front like yours. Then I got new springs and it went away.

Im not 100%, but I remember seeing a honda bulletin on here for some newer civics having wheelbearing problems. Your decription of the noise isnt all that great.

Id take it to the dealership, tell them you want it fixed, if they cant "duplicate" the problem, just bring it back EVERY day
