There isn't a problem, just a curiosity. Something engages (possibly 4WD)
any ideas? Great car 19MPH Ah! A good sturdy ride!

Thanks, Jim

Doesn't the new version of the owner's manual mention that the _A_B_S_
charges up when you first start to drive?

Every other Honda manual mentions it.

READ THE MANUAL????? (with great embarassment I'll admit I did)

To me it felt like a magnetic clutch/solenoid engaging and it's in
perspective when the auto door locks click in. but that all could be related
to the ABS. The other ABS cars never did that from the Element/Civic and
Accord That's why I attributed it more to the 4wd. I'll wait until  the next
service, I think your right though!

Thanks!

I have noticed the same thump in my 06 Ridge. 17-18 MPG with mine.
