Keithchue 5th Gear August 10, 2012 Share August 10, 2012 bros, i'm driving a FD4, when ever the revs are between 1.6 to 2K i will have a metal grinding sound coming from the car. anything above or below that, no problem. sound is audible in the cabin. so i guess it is quite loud. any one encounter this? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moadia 1st Gear August 10, 2012 Share August 10, 2012 (edited) I experience this too but its on a Jazz 1.5 mannual..it happens to me only when it rains..its been 6 months but all workshop and even Kah Motor said that there is no problem. I even recorded the sound bit was told maybe its due to the aerodynamics.. Edited August 10, 2012 by Moadia Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happily1986 5th Gear August 11, 2012 Share August 11, 2012 bros, i'm driving a FD4, when ever the revs are between 1.6 to 2K i will have a metal grinding sound coming from the car. anything above or below that, no problem. sound is audible in the cabin. so i guess it is quite loud. any one encounter this? sounds serious. why don't you bring back to KM and run some proper diagnostics instead of second guessing which could be very expensive.

Elmo 4th Gear August 11, 2012 Share August 11, 2012 (edited) bros, i'm driving a FD4, when ever the revs are between 1.6 to 2K i will have a metal grinding sound coming from the car. anything above or below that, no problem. sound is audible in the cabin. so i guess it is quite loud. any one encounter this? Is the sound there if rev at neutral gear? If yes shouldn't be gearbox issue. If no then could be gearbox or clutch plate. I used to have this rattling and grinding sound whenever I off-throttle while cruising. That happened right after I changed my clutch. After asking around, I was told "it's liddat one". Btw I'm not driving a Civic so just a general comment. Edited August 11, 2012 by Elmo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viper76 2nd Gear August 11, 2012 Share August 11, 2012 try turning if sound then wheel bearing , else brake sound brake pads have to changed. do u encounter more loud grinding sound when driving thru speed bumps? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cichildae Neutral Newbie August 11, 2012 Share August 11, 2012 Could it be pinging sound? Does it occur at lower revs and esp under load e.g up slope... If its pinging did u use lower octane fuel? Better check it out... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamemonster Clutched August 11, 2012 Share August 11, 2012 Nope. Only when engaged drive, that is the puzzling part. its the tensional bearing and belt... Same goes for jazz.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
