Blaze, it's actually because the viscosity your rear differential fluid
is exhausted... It shows up louder on left-hand turns, at low speed. You
can change it yourself, or have the dealer do it. You'll need one litre
of Dual Pump Fluid, which is a proprietary product. Honda left a lot of
the 'dots' out of the maint. schedule in your manual. Concensus is that
it should be replaced after 30,000 km.

Your valve adjustment is also overdue, according to the experience of
the folks over at hondasuv.com. There's even Ozzies over there ! !

Glad to help. It's one of those problems you'd never find on your own,
and the Owner's manual is NO HELP. We pay about CAN $16 for a litre of
Dual Pump Fluid, but it's better than a $3,000 differential. :-)
