Hi Everyone, I'm not sure this is the correct forum topic to post this, so if it isn't I am hopeful the moderator will move it for me.
I'm a new CT owner, and new to the CT Forums. I purchased a new 2010 CT three weeks ago, currently has 787 miles, it is an EX-L and has 4WD. The dealer I purchased it from is 80 miles from where I live, so I don't just jump up and go ask the dealer questions when I have a problem with my Honda's (This is my fourth Honda purchase, my wife and I love Honda cars). Yes, I live in a rual area of NM, my options are limited and we have to plan our trips out of town to make the most of them.
Last week we began hearing a knock in our front end. The sound is similiar to that in a gear box when there is slack and the gears hit. At first I thought it might be the breaks; however, the knock sound is heard when we accelerate, and when we slow down regardless of whether or not the breaks are applied.
I am sure the knock is from the front of the car. I listened outside the car as it was backed up and moved forward and I believe that the knock is not from the breaks, but more under the engine. Since the knock was first apparent, it seems to be louder, but I admit it could be that I am more aware of it now and could be impartial because of that.
I am going to the dealer next week to have them look at it, but I was hoping someone on this forum would have an idea of what could be causing this so I could be more helpful to the dealer when talking to them about it. Your help is welcomed. Richard
