EM1 Civic Si Front End clunk
Hello everyone,
I have a 2000 Civic Si with 183k miles that has sort of a pop or clunk noise coming from front end (right side). So far I've noticed it when backing out of a parking spot, turning the wheel all the way to the left, hard braking, and even from stop-and-go sometimes.
I have done/replaced the following:
- front upper control arms on both sides
- upper & lower ball joints on both sides
- sway bar links on both sides
- front lower engine/torque mounts
- inspected front upper engine mount (the one below airbox)
- new right cv axle
- visually inspected the right strut for damaged strut cap/bearing
- new sway bar bushings
- new tie rod ends
- inspected lower control arms and bushings
- checked the front right wheel for any free play
and the noise is still there.
At this point I'm just looking for some ideas what else to check.
Thanks.

It sounds like a lower A arm bushing to me......but you said you have checked that. I assume that you have taken a pry bar and attempted to move everything backwards and forwards as to what the wheel is doing when you hear the popping sound. Something is moving that is not suppose to move.....do you hear it when you brake hard......
