Check whether the strut for the right wheel is loose. Is the shock leaking fluid?

I'd put the front end on stands, pull the right wheel off, and then grab and shake the strut and suspension components to see whether anything is loose.

Is it in the engine bay or just from that side of the car? Does it do it when your taking off, slowing, moving slow, using your brakes?

My car makes similar sounds, I have chalked it up to aging motor mounts, kinda a squeek/crackle noise, but only when dead stopped and taking off, or slowing to a full stop.

I'm new to these forums and was browsing around... and this thread seems very similar to a thread I just posted. https://www.hondacivicforum.com/foru...ad.php?t=71338 - Whatdya think, Silverbullet, sound like the same issue? I also have pictures posted that I couldn't quite figure out how to put in my post, but is in my photo album
