Little problem on the highway

I was coming home from a long trip and after 9 hours of driving being home close to an hour i was surprised by something which i don't think was a pothole but rather a bump on the highway. My car dived pretty bad but i didn't hear any metal noise, just a hard hit on the suspension.... and after that, the car drove fine until i got home. It drove straight and i didn't feel anything bumpy like a bent rim but when i got home i started hearing a creaking noise like a metal on metal rubbing sound when i go over bumps and when i turn the steering wheel.

i'm pretty sure something got damaged i was just wondering what it could be....


i have the a-spec suspension by the way, installed it 2 months ago....

could be control arm or shock mount or steering rack or ball joints got damaged.
maybe sway bar or end links!
Get to an alignment- front end- suspension shop and have it put in the air and checked

Didn't you have a problem with your sway bar a few months ago? You can bring your car down to my fathers shop and have them take a look at it.

where is your fathers shop located? I was thinking to go to acura dealership but they might just do something to get around it...
