Dodge - Engines - Timing-belts - Pump - Neon - Belts :: 1995 - Squeaking Noise - Blown Timing Belt?
I've got my sister's 1995 Dodge Neon with the 2.0L SOHC. While driving it recently I heard a horrible squeaking noise then a ZZZZZZzzzzzz sound. I immediately pulled over. The check engine light came on, and I shut the car off. Coolant was all over the place leading me to believe the water pump failed. I had it towed to my house, and now I will have it towed to the shop to get fixed. I would like to have them repair the timing belt and water pump. However, I am afraid that the valves were beaten to a pulp and now I will need a new engine. I was only going 35 mph when it happened. What are the odds that my valves were smashed up, and is there anything I can do to check them before I pay for a timing belt/water pump repair?

I have a high pitched noise coming from my car's navigation DVD. If I eject the DVD, the noise goes away. It starts up again when I put the DVD back in. Sometimes it doesn't make any noise, but it's typically on the whole time the car is on. When I stop the car, it continues for a little bit, which makes me think that it has something to do with the DVD rubbing against something.
A few months ago, I would get sporadic errors about the disc that would go away if I ejected and reinserted the disc. Other than the high pitched noise, it seems to be running fine now. The main question I have is whether replacing the disc has any hope to get rid of the noise or if I have a bigger problem and need to repair the system.

I recently had an oil change at a new shop. While I was there, they said I needed to get a power steering and brake fluid flush and recommended a fuel induction service. I have a 2003 Honda Accord with about 107,000 miles on it. The car runs fine, I have no problems. Occasionally, when I hit the brakes, there is a high pitched squeak.
I've been doing research and getting mixed results on if these services are necessary. What could be the cause of the brake noise?
Prius (2004-09) :: A/C Compressor Cycles On For Couple Seconds Then Stops
Just rescued this 2004 from a driveway death. While checking out a no A/C condition I notice that the A/C compressor cycles on for about 10-15 seconds then stops, does this 4 times and then ends. System shows low pressure but doesn't run long enough to build up any. Need to get the OBD-2 tester on it.

I have a 2002 Honda Civic EX with 146,000 miles. It started making a whining/high pitched humming type noise whenever I turned. Every now and then it makes the same noise (though not as loud) when I'm just driving straight.
When I checked my power steering fluid, it was low, so I added to it. That worked with the noise briefly, but now it's back and the fluid level is fine.
Prius (2004-09) :: Noise From Brakes Like A Belt Slipping When At A Complete Stop
My brakes are making a noise like a belt slipping when I'm at a complete stop. The noise only happens when I'm at a stop, brakes work fine. Lift my foot off the brake, noise goes away. Seems to be coming from front drivers side. What should I look for?
View 7 RepliesFord F-150 - 1997-2003 :: Noise Like Belts Slipping Coming From Engine
I drive a 2002 F-150 (4.2L) with 150K miles. A noise similar to the belts slipping started up the other day but stopped when I drove the truck for a short distance. So I thought slipping belts was the problem but the noise started up again even after driving several miles. The noise only comes on intermittently and not all the time. In fact, it never comes on when a mechanic is looking at it so they think I am hearing things.
I had the belt changed out and the mechanic said he thought the water pump was going out. So I had that changed out. He had the alternator checked out and it was good. The truck runs fine but the noise still comes and goes. It sounds like a high pitch vibration or like something is rubbing against something else but only periodically. What it could be?
Venture :: High Pitched Squeak From Belt Area
I have a higher pitched squeak..more of a clicking or a bird chirping type sound from the belt area. I don't believe it's the belt as I replaced that and the tensioner last Summer.
It's sporadic at idle but increases under load/acceleration. Would a failing water pump be a possibility? My first impression was a wheel bearing but it still happens at stand still and upon looking under the hood, it's coming from the belt area.
I'm also having issues where the low coolant light will come on occasionally but then going back off. When I check the coolant, it's full at the neck and in the overflow. The thought occured to me that maybe the pump is having trouble keeping up; causing a low coolant condition at times. IDK just a thought... maybe it's an unrelated problem. The head gasket was just replaced a year ago.
Honda - Accord :: 2002 - High Pitch Noise Upon Accelerating After Replacing The Belt
I bought a 2002 accord with 105800 miles 3 weeks ago. I got the timing belt and water pump replaced within a week of that. I have noticed that the car makes a high pitch noise upon accelerating after replacing the belt. It does not happen always, but sometimes. I have noticed it on 3 days in last 2 weeks. A preliminary web search tells me that it could be a tight timing belt.
View 3 RepliesThunderbird :: High Pitched Squeal Coming From Front Of AC Compressor Whenever Clutch Engages
A high pitched squeal appears to come from the front of the a/c compressor whenever the clutch engages. When the clutch disengages the compressor stops spinning, and the squeal stops. I can watch and listen to this as the system cycles with the a/c switched on. If I turn off the a/c, no squeal. I'm guessing the bearings in the compressor are going out. However, the system still cools normally, so apparently no gas has leaked out.
Does this imply the compressor must be replaced, or could injection of some oil into the system possibly fix it...?
This car only has 73,000 miles on it. I've owned 2 other TB's and a couple classic Mustangs with much higher miles and never seen an a/c compressor bearings fail.
Accent MC (2006-11) :: 2007 - High Pitched Screeching Sound From Belt

View 21 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: 2008 - High Pitched Woo-woo Noise During Acceleration
I took my 2008, 56k in for a new battery after my car sat outside in negative degree temps for a few days. After doing that repair, the dealer recommended a new serpentine belt. Ever since that service appointment, the car is making a high-pitched "woo-wooo" noise during acceleration. It's definitely a noise I've never heard before. I took it back to the dealer two days later; he had the service guy drive it and they both claim the noise is normal and just due to the cold. Is it the belt? Is it the cold? Am I losing my mind?
View 3 RepliesTouareg :: 2004 - High Pitched Noise From The Right Front Wheel
My '04 started making a high pitched noise from the right front wheel within the last two weeks. It's in the local dealer now and they tell me they suspect a bad right front wheel bearing. I don't see any posts about similar experiences here. I kind of worry that the fact the vehicle is two years old and only has 9200 miles on it may be part of the problem-is infrequent use enough to cause the bad bearings? I drove it infrequently (1-2x/week, sometimes no driving for a week or two) up until the last three months, and now it's being driven daily.
View 10 RepliesTiguan :: 6 High Pitched Beeps After Seal Belt Chime Disabled - How To Turn It Off
On my wife's 2013 Tiguan SEL, i took into a indy VW repair shop, to have the seatbelt chime disabled cos i don't have a vagcom myself.
Anyway he went to instruments, adaptation, and found it in there, which gave him four options, the factory setting was 2, he couldn't load 1, because it failed, but was able to load 3.. 4 also failed.
I think when i say 1,2,3,4 it said channels ??
Anyway, given 1 & 4 failed, only left him with 2 & 3, 2 being the factory setting.. However for 3, the seat belt chime is disabled BUT only after 6 high pitched beeps... If the seatbelt is on during startup there's no high pitched beep.. If you take the seat belt off after ignition its all fine, no beeps, actually a better way to describe it is the seat belt chime is disabled, apart from the 6 high pitched beeps, if you turn on the ignition without the belt clicked in..
Is there anyway to turn off the annoying 6 high pitched beeps...

I know this noise is the Thermos Pump and it operates when I turn the car on and off. Question - is it failing - also a really annoying noise, but I'll put up with it as long as nothing's breaking.

The "D" on my 2004 Honda Element has been flashing lately. It has been happening occasionally for the past couple of days. Most of the time when I notice it, I stop, restart the car, and then it stops flashing. The flashing also continues even when it's in park or reverse. Most people on other forums say that it is a transmission issue so what specific transmission issue it is most likely.
