Hello all. Just started posting here. Noticed that others have previously linked to my article on vtec
(http://vtec.net/articles/view-article?article_id=533699). BTW, in that article I reference changing the 06 Civic horn to a pair of Odyssey horns; I learned how to do that from this site, so many thanks to those who posted that info here.

In my article I mention the wind noise problem, which has been resolved and is now discussed in Honda's service news. A second common issue is the AC dripping water in the right front passenger footwell. This is caused by a twisted seal in the airbox and is an easy fix if you find a service dept with the patience to do it. The right front suspension / motor mount clunk is still unresolved with my 06 EX sedan.

Thanks again for this great forum. Looking forward to a lot of info exchange in the future.

Welcome to the family, good sir :)

I believe there are a few folks here with the "suspension clunk", so perhaps they'll be able to tell you how their dealer was able to deal with it. If I'm not mistaken, I believe something was just replaced.
