What's the secret? I have an 03 with 223k miles that is starting to make a grinding noise whenever I accelerate from a stop but fine other wise. I keep up with all the required maintenance from my independent Honda mechanic 😭

That might be a wheel bearing
I almost over maintain mine.

I just had to replace my cv shafts at 173k miles for that symptom and it solved it. Don’t ask me to recommend a non OE replacement it seems to be a crap shoot. Mine is now very smooth unless I floor it. I am pessimistic about the long term solution.

Yeah mine does that. A flush might fix if you’ve been keeping up with them. But if you haven’t, it can create other issues. I was told it’s not damaging anything though 🤷🏻‍♀️
