Check the rubber boots on the driveshaft and the steering arms. Is it just when you turn the wheels or when you are pulling off...For want of a better expression!:xlol:

I had this a few times now, exactly as you are saying, going very very slow each time I pull away from a junction etc. and each time it has been one of the anti roll bar drop links, as soon as it has been replaced it has been fine. Each time it was a different one, which makes sense for them to start giving a little play as they have never been replaced before and are all the same age.

The drop links can be bought from Honda and are not too expensive, around £40 inc. VAT then about £55 for fitting, so in total £95.
