I got a 97 civic d16y7 and its making a loud squeal through the tachs. It just had a new tranny from a 99 d16y8. I can't pinpoint the sound. Should I cut the ac belt and start from there?
mine does the same damn thing but not as loud, but still, its a brand new pump and new everything. its pissing me off cuz i have so much money and time into it at this point. anyone have any suggestions? please let me know thanks
darkmagician is exactly right; I was waiting for him to stick his hand down on the compressor clutch as soon as it ingages. Wait till he finds out the "just a loose bolt" is gonna cost him about $1,200.00. Have fun.
I'm sure you've gotten it resolved, but its a failing compressor. you can wait until it fails or replace it now. Either way, you're going to have to get the line flushed since theres a possibility there is metal in the system. Benefit of changing it before failure is you might be able to save your old expansion valve
