Sound when braking to a stop/accelerating from a stop.

Hey all how's it going?

I recently purchased a 09 acura tsx 6-speed and have about 1400 miles on it. I noticed yesterday when i brake to a stop, at around 15 miles an hour, there's a sound coming from what seems like the brakes or the front suspension. it sounds like a very very low clunk sound and you can sort of feel it very slightly in the pedals. This also happens when I start to accelerate. Anyone have this problem as well or know what I'm talking about? any help would be awesome. Thanks!

Ps..I've read around the forums and the 09 TSX's seem to have alot of problems with it. Speakers, pinging etc.

FYI

Just got the car back from the dealership

The following fixes were related to front and rear noise:

1. front - noise in front end on bumps and when turning - front brake line was twisted and hitting the strut when turning, removed the brake caliper and untwisted brake line, reinstalled and test drove to confirm noise is gone.
2. rear - popping noise in rear on bumps, popping from rear jack point, perform service bulletin 09-019 - installed wedge

Yeah, I usually do because I always need a loaner vehicle. I think it's always best to, that way, you can describe the problem beforehand so that they'll be prepared.

I have a 2010 TSX with the same issue you experienced. Did you ever get this fixed? If so, what was the cause so that I can point my dealership in the right direction?
