Did they find a US bulletin?

I also have the same noise in cold weather and over bumps

Did you have to bring it in to verify noise? Or did they order you parts?

Do those part numbers apply to mine? I live in the US, Connecticut

I called and set up an appointment and made sure the parts department ordered those parts.
There is no US bulletin for this issue as of yet, but I can say, the more people that complain about this, the faster we will get a service bulletin for it. It is also worth pointing out that a bulletin is NOT a recall, and does not necessarily mean warranty coverage for anyone that may be out of warranty. Print and reference the Canadian bulletin given above, speak with the service manager and ask if they can get Techline involved so that we can get a process going for the repair. Be professional above all else, we do not respond well to demands and people that feel the need to beat their chest.

Do you have a coupe by chance? Curious if this issue is specific to sedans.
I don’t think it’d make a difference between a coupe or sedan would it? Same suspension and adaptive dampers.

So today was colder than yesterday , and I heard nothing . Strange .
I had 2 50 pounds bags of salt in the trunk that I removed . Maybe the extra weight contributed to this ?

HONDA has released a bulletin on this and will fix it !

B-1-17 is the TSB#.

This may just be Canada though, don't know it that # will work in the US.

So 429 civics are affected? That VIN range seems small

I'm gonna take mine in monday. My car has 700 miles on it, just got it in December and it clunks bad. I thought rear struts were blown because it rides like a board on wheels when cold. Been beating my back up pretty good lately.

That sounds like too small of a group to me. If I just bought mine, and some people have had theirs a while, I can't imagine the group is that small. Doesn't seem right does it?

Exactly. I have the PDF for the Honda Bulletin. I'll screenshot it.
