Noises! We all hate them.

So back in winter my car used to make this clicking sound when it was still cold and i was turning. When the car warmed up it seemed to go away. Now its summer time hot as shoot outside and the clicking sound is always there. Coming somewhere by the wheel in the front right. Anyone have some kind of idea what it may be. only happens while turning while adding some gas.

Yeap you are correct. It is the CV joints. You have an 08. Do you still have powertrain warranty left? Mine was replaced for free.

If it's Acura Certified used, you get it extended to 100k.

you will need to replace your axles.....go with Raxles if you wanna save some money....just as good as oem and a little bit cheaper (I think they are nice than oem, just replaced both mine 3 months ago)

dont go through the dealer.....Raxles can make you one it takes a few days...or else order it offline from acuraoemparts.com and save yourself 50 bux.
