2022 Honda Accord — single clunk over small sharp bumps

RotorCommuter84Community StarterJan 8, 20262022 Honda Accord 2.0T SportNationwide

2022 Honda Accord 2.0T Sport, about 49,500 miles. There is one front-end clunk over pothole edges and driveway lips, but larger smooth bumps do not reproduce it. How would you isolate end links, strut mounts, control-arm bushings and ball joints? I am trying not to assume the first explanation I see online.

I wouldn't throw parts yet. Swap the cheap/easy piece first on the 2022 Honda Accord and see if the fault moves. If the cheap test changes it, stop and reassess. If you share a photo of the worksheet, easier to sanity-check. I've seen both outcomes, which is why I'd test instead of assume. Not interested in a five-hour wait for a shrug.
