Hello,
I have had some problems my protege5 recently and I wanted to see if anyone can help me with the issue.
1st problem
While driving there is a weird noise coming from the passengers side in the engine bay. When I accelerate for the first 3ish seconds you can hear a noise, I’m guessing it’s the timing belt or whatever is associated with it. You can only hear the noise for about 3-4 seconds in a gear, and then when the next gear picks up it does the same sound. I’m not really sure what to change. Any help?
2nd problem
I recently added coilovers to my car and there is a clunking sound coming from the rear. I believe that it is the rear strut mounts since I haven’t changed those when I added the coilovers. It sounds like a constant clunk every time I go over little cracks on the road and it’s driving me crazy. I’m not sure where I can get the rear strut mounts or what the parts number is. Any help?
I just want my car to run better : (
