rich frv Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Hi. My Honda is making a noise around the fan belt drives. It seems a lot louder than usual. The only things that have happened are that I recharged the air con, which now is lovely and cold. But then the battery drained a few hours later. Well tbh it kinda started turning off during driving when I slowed down. Later I had to attempt a battery to battery jump start, but the car battery jumped back to life the second I connected the leads. The next day the battery was dead again. I did the same and drive for a few hours. But the engine sounds loud. After an hour I stopped. Then came back to car and as I pulled out, the car went clunk and smoke appeared. I stopped. Looked ( see video ) and tried again. Just smoke this time. Looked again and it seemed to be ok, but noisy. I checked with the dash wifi engine checker and it said something about a Knock sensor 1 issue but that cleared a few hours later. Any ideas? https://youtu.be/5w2kpghjYOI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Sounds like the belt is shredding as either the alternator or the air con compressor are seized. You will need to remove the belt and see which pulley is not rotating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich frv Posted July 27, 2021 Author Share Posted July 27, 2021 Thanks will do I'm thinking it's the Aircon and possibly the bearings as when I now turn on the Aircon it makes such a clackety sound Will get back with more details Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
