I am not sure about the 2004 Accord vs. 2003 Accord tho I suspect the same for the 4 cylinder engine. Maybe someone can confirm this ???? For the 2003 4cyl Accord, it specifies a drive belt which includes timing as part of functions. For this belt is says to inspect it at certain intervals and depending on the findings, it may need to be replaced. ref (2003 Accord sedan) : https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/...303O00302B.pdf and https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/...303O00248B.pdf (see page 250 and 252) ref (2004 Accord sedan) : https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/...404O00234B.pdf (pg 235) Hope this helps !! |
Re: 2003 Accord Whirring Noise in Engine?
i took the car over today - they found a slight leak in the pump, which
supposedly caused the brake fluid to leak too - I did a complete service, which was overdue, and they told me the belts, everything else were fine. They said the noise may be there for the next 100,000 miles but said it's in perfect condition - thoughts? <2003 Honda owner> wrote in message news:k6vse3l0h1278b4pb3e8mfjc19u5khbifg@4ax.com... > On Sun, 16 Sep 2007 17:45:43 -0700, "Howard Lester" > <heylester@dakotacom.net> wrote: > >> >>"Brian Smith" wrote >> >>>> :-) Yeah, that was pretty dumb, huh?
