Dang, my rear hubs are making a popping noise also! I don't hear a creaking noise or anything just the "POP" when I have been sitting for a while then move. I hope this is not a lead up to the problems you are having!!

You could re-torque your spindle nuts and also drain your differential through a strainer and look for particles in the fluid. If your diff has failed there should be some contaminants in the fluid. If you were closer I'd be glad to help.
Drain the fluid and look for metal bits first.

WOW 
Tough news man 
... So basically the stealership was throwing 'roundabout answers to u concerning the problem??? Heck, u just changed ya diff fluid about a month ago now... Notice anything then??
Maniac, mine does the same popping/creaking thing on occasion after its been sitting awhile too... Not too noticeable though, but I do hear it from time to time...
Might need to check into retorquing mine to 220...

I just started a similiar post a week ago. I had the spindle problem and took it to Acura (where I purchased the car) and they said it would cost $292.00. I even told them what to do and they wouldn't do it. I took it to Honda and they were going to charge me over $500.00 to fix it! 
Even after I told them what was the problem.
Long story short
I fixed the problem in 10 min. for $10.00!!!
Bought 2 new lugs at the Honda parts dept. for $10. Went to a mechanic that goes to my Dad's church and 10 min. later.... fixed!
