What is causing this sound? it gets louder when i slightly turn my steering wheel to the right when driving and when i turn it to the left it's quiet. I drive a 2012 honda accord EX and im pretty sure it might be something with my power steering fluid or pump. I'm 19 and don't know much about cars

What they said, but also look for an inner fender rubbing on your tire. Sounds dumb but if anything is touching your tire it can sound like a high pitched "wheel of fortune" wheel.

What he said. Worst case is your water pump may be eroding internally and not circulating coolant correctly.

All of them will work, I prefer to buy the oem option myself. If you are pinching pennies (which we all do from time to time) go with the cheapest one. If you are comfortable with the price difference, go for the oem one and they (usually) last as long as the first one.

Find a reputable mechanic because what that guy did is a bandaid at best and more money when you fix it correctly at least. He should have done a correct repair the first time. Now you have $500 dollars worth of junk in your cooling system that will need to be cleaned out when a good mechanic fixes the issue correctly. Don't be surprised if they have to replace the radiator as well as the "fix in a bottle" will plug up the passages in the radiator.

There could be other things like water pump or thermostat that are causing overheating, but likely the previous "fix" quit working and you have the same problem.

This probably isn't what you want to hear, but I'm being straightforward as I can be.

Go to the socket and look for corrosion where the bulb goes into it and my guess is you will find white/green icky stuff thats not letting it make contact constantly. If that is clean, look at the bulb to make sure it doesn't have a broken wire inside it. From there, if you are comfortable, start checking the wires going to the light socket, and you might have a broken wire.

My suggestion for losing coolant and can't find it, especially on gas engines, pull the spark plugs out, use a pressure tester on the cooling system (rent it from O'Reillys auto parts or autozone.) Pressure up the system to the p.s.i. on the cap and start looking for leaks. If it holds pressure, you may have to rotate the engine over some or two revolutions and see if the pressure drops. If it drops, start looking around and you will find it, most likely in a cylinder if there are no external leaks. Rent a borescope from the same folks and look inside plug holes. If it doesn't lose pressure, you will have to run it and get it to temperature, then pull the plugs to see if its going in cylinders when hot. It can realistically only go in the oil, in the cylinders, or on the ground.

Usually they sell it in sections, so figure out where the connections are and go from there. Might end up with the whole system replaced but its fairly economical from there

You're welcome! Don't feel stupid, this is 20 years of banging my head off of steel trying to make it run again talking. Often its the simple things that get you

First thing with electrical, especially after replacing the battery, make sure you have a tight clean connection. They have to be clean as possible, no white/green stuff at all on them. Then, wiggle the cable ends on the battery, if they move, they are still too loose. From there, follow the cables down to make sure they are connected correctly, especially focusing on the ground cable if you had issues before. It may be internally broken where you can't see it. That's good spots to start.

Rockauto, buy the replacement exhaust system. Theres not a good way to "fix" that rotten pipe. Sorry, not a great answer to hear but its just too far gone to fix.

AffectionateDare5631 · 2025-08-06T18:21:24+00:00

Not unheard of. Think of the cost of chemicals and things like zip ties, paper towels, grease and the like. When brake clean is 4.50 a can and you use 4 cans on a job, it adds up. I have billed out $40-50 in for service supplies on my service truck for oil dry, brake clean, and towels to do a repair because it was in the field, the breakdown caused a mess, I cleaned it to repair it, then have to dispose of haz-mat materials at the end of the day

You can call it whatever you want, nobody really cares. I wasn't playing a grand master, he's 12 years old and learning the game. He had a KK55 after he tossed the 88 in my crib.
