Clicking noise from dead stop?

I just hit 10k on the odo. The car runs great but there seems to be a clicking or light thunking noise when I hit the gas pedal from a stop. Anyone run into this problem? Im starting to hear some rattles too.

Is it just the first time after you start the car or every time from a dead stop?

Every time from a dead stop. It didnt happen when i first purchased the car, the problem appeared once i hit around 10k.

The ABS only does a self check when you drive your car over 5 miles per hour, right after you start it. Once you cycle the ignition off and then on again, it will check the ABS again.

Also - FYI, (if you can even hear it, I could on my prelude) the ABS check sounds more like a pump turning on then a clunking sound.
