Yes, that should've been your first step. I hope you are atleast running some type of tune other than the stock civic one.

Been there before. I just happened to luck into one (after owning 10 or so) that doesnt buzz. As I recall (from about 8 years ago), when you bleed the abs it has a tendency to cause the big brown can to go bad....sadly, I believe it is a pita to replace (its under high pressure) and cost quite a bit of cash.
