I've had my Integra Aspec for about 2 months now, and I started noticing a knocking noise coming from my wheel well. Has anyone else experienced this? The noise is noticeable from about 45mph and increases with speed. I can post videos to get a better understanding of the noise.

Did they check tire balance? Lug nuts? Sometimes it is the easy things that are overlooked. Based on noticing with a certain speed I would say tire issue for sure.
Easy home test rotate your tires and see if the problem moves.

Not knowing what they already looked at, makes it kind of hard to make a single recommendation, but hopefully it's something simple.

Have they inspected/tested:
  • All under body and wheel well paneling to ensure it's secure?
  • The front fender enclosure is installed properly? I noticed both of mine weren't fully hooked into place, highlighted below. You just have to open your door(s) to be able to check and reposition into place.

  • Checked for a broken/slipped tire belt. I believe a road force balance is the best way to check for this.
  • Drive axles? My '02 RSX Type-S had one, or both, replaced under warranty and they'd make a thumping noise that increased with speed.
  • Engine mounts?

The car is at the dealership getting diagnosed at the moment, but I definitely appreciate this!
