  1. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Hey just wondering if anyone has had these exact symptoms and found the cure? Only happens on the first start of the day with temperature below 10C. About 5 seconds after the car is running what sounds like a bearing squealing can be heard from the passenger side of the motor. After about 2...

I've taken my car to 2 shops, and had car junkies look at it and none of them can figure it out. There is a squeak/door creaking squeal like sound coming from under the hood...
  3. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Please help. I have a 02 base RSX with 150,000 miles. Recently there has been a squeal on startup when the engine is cold. It only lasts for a second or 2. If you start the car when the engine is warm, it doesn't do it. Is this the serpentine belt? I replaced it about 30k ago but maybe it...

  7. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Sputtering and squeaking from engine wen slowing and stopping usually a primary o2 when the cel is on and a reinstall of my Sri usually fixes it by now it's making this noise. Clutch was replaced not even 20k ago. Any thoughts? Car is at 99 k and in all honesty sounds like a belt

    Hi there, My drive belt is making a high pitch noise, and increases with rev, replaced the idler pulley, still the same noise. My mechanic used a ecometer like tool tried different points, and told me the noise is from the alternator. He suggested replace the alternator soon, before it goes...

  10. Problems & Solutions RSX
    I've searched and searched on clutch squeal, squeak, clicks, and any other clutch sound issues, but I'm not seeing anything that gives insight to my problem.. Basically, starting a few weeks ago, my clutch, or something else with the tranny, makes a squealing noise when I accelerate in 1st gear...
  11. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Hi everyone, This is my first post. I'm a long time lurker on this forum though. I recently installed a CAI, and no problems for weeks, but now the there is a high-pitched constant squeal when I accelerate. If I take my foot off the gas, it stops. Seems consistently after I shift then...
  12. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Okay, I had another post of this but it seems nobody is getting quite what I mean. From the video you can tell there is a VERY high pitched squeal coming from...(this is where you come in). Also, there is a rattle or something coming from the engine that is also a mystery. There is an exhaust...

    My girlfriend has a 2003 Pontiac Vibe and I recently replaced her front brake pads because her pads were low and were squeaking bad. The guy at the parts store said I had two options: I could get Original Replacement pads or I could get Ceramic pads. He said the Ceramic pads would be better...

    http://tinyroar.com/rsx_sound.m4a Found the location where the squeal is coming from I have removed the inspection cover and there is a really loud squeal coming from the transmission. (@ idle) Someone told me it might be a bad release bearing. I dont really know much about transmissions, Can...
  15. Suspension, Chassis & Brakes
    Hi, I did a search but it's hard to find a specific answer for particular brake squeal problems. So the problem is that I'm getting a high pitched brake squeal at low speeds... I THINK it's coming from my rear. It's not incredibly loud, but it's high pitched - i have to turn off my music to...
  16. Problems & Solutions RSX
    So here it is, A few weeks ago I noticed that I had a squeal from the belt when the car was cold. Guessing that the belt was shot I replaced it. It still slipped. Next I tried replacing the power steering fluid with B&M synthetic ATF. This greatly improved the steering response and feel...

  18. Suspension, Chassis & Brakes
    so my brake pad life was 60% about three months ago when i got the car inspected before i bought it. the brakes now make a high pitched squealing sound whenever i brake. the obvious problem would be to stop driving and replace the pads, but what else could be the problem. could they have dirt on...
  19. Suspension, Chassis & Brakes
    First of all I don't know if I am posting in the right section as I honestly don't know where the squeal is coming from. A buddy told me it MAY be my rotors so I figured this would be a good place to start. Basically I have noticed in the past week that when I'm in lower gears [2nd/3rd] and...
