Default rear clicking noise , any ideas?

after having my tired messed up by honda, i.e. they forgot to balance it and put it on poorly. Althought it's been fixed now.

Now when I turn from start up I hear a faint click click click sound right before the clutch fully engage. it's fine going from other gears, the sound comes from the rear right. What problem could this be?

at first I thought may be it's the differential, but it only happen when I am at a start and especially when I am making a left / right turn from start.

please help.

This might not be related, but I had found thanks to RT a TSB that had a news addendium.

Rear end pop/click noise when neutral to start forward motion or reverse motion. Basically, when starting out in 1st, I'd hear a short clicking noise from the rear or when I stop and then go into reverse, same thing. Anything to do with an initial force to the driveline, there's a couple of audible clicks or pops then goes away.
This was the exact issue I had. I went to the dealer, showed them this:



and they took off both spindle nuts, greased everything up, put it back and it seems fine. I'm so glad that issue has been resolved. Thanks RT!
