Hey all, I bought my car from auction and had to replace the ima (got one from a 2015 civic.) I’ve had it for multiple years, but a few things would always happen…

if I turn on climate control (heat or ac) ima light will come on. The other thing is I have a big chirp vibration from the tensioner if I turn it on at all and creat a load.

I notice the top pulley closes to the front end will vibrate like crazy and rattle.

im assuming it is the tensioner. After searching around I can only seem to find one directly from Honda. (Part 31170-RW0-003). I called a few local places and they said I had to get one from the dealer which is 150 dollars.

is there another part number I should look into? Or other considerations?

Hybrids werent common and its going to be a hybrid specific part. Try maybe hondapartsnow, but i think you're going to have to bite the bullet.

I figured as much, I was going to check the place I got the ima, but I’ll check out hondapartsnow. Ty!

Hello there I have a Honda 2014 hybrid and the compressor is gone, I have to remove the serpentine belt to start the car again
I have no money for the moment to get a new compressor.
Can I get a serpentine belt to bypass the compressor?
what’s the number part If so?

Just measure for a shorter belt

Thank you for the response, I don’t have any mechanic experience, my question now is, is there a measurement table that I can use to find the right one? Or I’m going to be back and forward from and to the auto parts

thank you very much my good sir, now I have an idea
