Strange Noise. I own a 2000 Civic SiR (em1). At low speeds/rpm and especially when turning, I am hearing a grinding noise that fades in and out from somewhere in the engine bay. I am not sure if the sound is always being made but I can only hear it when I am moving slowly. I will try and record the sound but until then, does anybody have a clue as to what it could be? It literally sounds like something in my engine bay breaking. It has a grinding/metal on metal sounds and a mix of other not so good sounds. Thanks |
