Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

    Whirring noise from timing belt area?

    Hey Cb7Tuner, I got a strange issue. Long story short, I had little to no gas today. I drove home from work with a red gas light on. I dropped a freind home, and on the way back home the car stuttered and shut off on me. No surprise, since I had no gas. Now, that happened a few times before I got to the station. I've rarely had this happen in my duration of having my car, but hppened quite a few times tonight.

    Anyway, to get to the prolblem: When I'm not moving, the car is making a stange whirring noise.It's low, but I've listened to my car enough to know which sound wasn't there before. After I got home, I left the car on, pulled up thehood, and pressed the gas. It's dark so I couldn't see too well, but I can hear this "whirring" noise coming fom the timing belt area, te part closest to the hood. I need tune up anyway, but does any one have any idea why this is? What this sound could be? Is it because the car kept shutting off on me?

    A belt could be rubbing, could be your PS pump. Your gonna have to pull the top timing cover to inspect.

      agree with dj, check the timing belt as soon as possible, also make sure none of your other belts arent rubbing the lower timing cover. Sometimes the timing cover bolts could be missing and the cover will rub the crank pulley or belts and make this noise, also oil leaks and power steering leaks will cause the rubber seal behind the timing cover to swell and push the cover out, in some extreme's ive seen the covers swell.
