He told me that he would do timing belt as well if he had to replace the water pump. And he said it should be right around 500$ There is no record of the timing belt ever being done, I figure it must have, but you never know...

So I couldnt figure it out myself nor did I have any tools on hand. Took it by a mechanic, (honest guy and does a great job), After a couple hours he called me and says he believes it is the water pump that is not circulating the coolant anymore. He ran it through that test for head gasket with...

I will refill it up right now and get it over to an auto parts store to look for a thermostat. I dont think she got it dry last night because when I came out to look at it, the coolant reservoir was showing it had coolant up to the 'fill' line. But after looking at it for a few minutes , the...

SO my wife just called me to come out and look at the car, she always drives the thing. Says that it smelled funny, so I pop the hood, coolant everywhere. I checked for leaks but it seems like it boiled over the coolant reservoir. She did not remember looking at the temperature gauge, and...

I believe that I am having the same issue.. Anytime hot or cold I get a rattle/squeal at 2k rpm, nothing more then that just a major annoyance. Sounds like a marble in a tin can Is anyone to put a step by step on how to remove and or fix this VTCS issue? Thanks!

Hey looking for a bra for the front end of my 03 protege5 Ive been looking online for some but wasnt sure if theyd fit properly. Im in Victoria BC Canada Thanks!

Going to be throwing on the winter rims soonish and i was going to give them a quick coat of satin black to freshen them up. But got me thinking, anyone experimented with painting winter steelies any color other then black? Pics would be sweet!

Got her about a month back, looking forward to doing some mods to her! Hate the rims upgrade those in spring hopefully.

thats the thing, when i try to reproduce the sound while stopped, barely happens, its a quiet chirp rather than the full rattle/squeal

2nd video its a pretty blatant squeal

I removed it a week back because I thought that might have been the issue. Not the case. Do the videos works? Seems to sound more like a belt squeal

Yeah ill do that and get back to you.

yeah the A/c works, it has the classic 'only works on #1 and sometimes #4 speeds' doesnt make a difference whether A/C is on or off or if I turn on all electronics. Just happens around 2k RPM it sounds like a rattle/bad bearing sound.

ive scoured these forums looking for advice, couldnt find one relating to my issue. Once the car warms up starts to sqeal only when i add enough gas to get it around 2k rpm above 2k no squeal below 2k no squeal 2k squeal? sucks because thats exactly where i need to be for most city driving and...
