  Which of course, begs the question, "Where does Handa Accessories get their parts from?"

  Try another dealer by phone. I don't believe they would discontinue this part. I think they just blew you off. Too lazy, chump change part, don't bother me, don't have time, I don't care about your molding. You know, the attitude we all know and love.
  
  Keep tryin'. If you get the same story from 3 dealers, okay then, I give up and eat my hat.

  barrett, i had the same problem with my '07 si. I brought it into the dealer and they replaced something with my front strut (i'm not much of a mechanical-type, so i'm not sure exactly) -- they seemed to know exactly what it was when i described it to them, so it's probably a bit more wide-spread than might be preferred...

  I took delivery of a 008 Civic SI sedan 07/04/08, and within a couple of days I noticed exactly what you described in your 007, a slight chucking noise when going over slight roughness. I took it back to the dealer (Redwood City Honda) and they diagnosed a defective left front strut, ordered one, and replaced it within a few days. The noise was gone.
  
  Unfortunately, I also have the cracking noise (like noisy human joints!) when parking, and I haven't decided whether this requires another trip to the dealer.
