Unhappy My car makes me sad

hey guys... pretty much another rant thread.

I have always been satisfied with my 7th gen and have really never regretted buying one. I wasn't getting that mod-your-car feeling anymore, so my plan was to keep my car as stock as possible. Keep it family and commuter friendly you know?

I think my car's dying I thought this loud grumbling noise was from my rim tires, but I put oem steelies on 2 weeks ago and it was just as loud. Now the noise is crazy while driving only at 60mph with some noticeable vibration
And to top it off a burning smell is coming from my engine bay and I can't find the source. I have schedule an appointment for an inspection and probably an *** reaming early tomorrow morning, in hopes that they can solve the problems.

Maybe it's something small, or maybe it's time for a new transmission. I was hoping i'd never have to dump money on the Civic for a case like this
goddam winter

Sounds like a wheel bearing. Hard to tell with limited info.

well burning could be a paper bag or something stuck on the underside of the exhuast piping. I had that and it was the cuase of my burnt smell.

As far as the wheel noise, im sure its nothing too crazy. any repair should shoould be able to diagnos and repair it.
