So this noise just started happening this week. It's a buzz that seems like it's emanating from below the dash on the driver side. Unsure what it could be, but based on the age of the vehicle and repairs I've done so far. I'll start with either the power steering rack and or transmission

About a week ago my 2010 Element started making a loud singing noise that sounds rotational coming from the rear axle area when driving...worse when turning right and louder with faster speeds.....it took about 15 minutes of driving to get the noise going. It started as a higher pitch singing...

So I had the same "sounds like a diesel at cold start" and "tappy" valve noise issue as pretty much everyone else. I bought the car a few months ago as a project. Our old one was destroyed years ago and we always wanted another so I found a clean but high mileage one for cheap and decided to...

Hi All, First time poster here. Just wanted to share a few pictures of my old transmission mount that was absolutely toasted. Replacement job took only about an hour and I immediately noticed huge differences in how little shaking from the engine bay there was anymore. As you can see, this...

Wind Whistling Solved- It was my oem roof racks. I thought the whistling was coming from the front drivers side window, or maybe the rubber around the door jam. The whistling would start around 60 but was quite evident at 70+. It was annoying to both myself and my passengers. One of the...

Maybe the object melted? Anyway, the title says it all, what should I know before replacing? Thank you for any help, I really appreciate doing it myself PEACE.

I have an 04 MT, and I had to have the transmission replaced at 175k. I had a used, supposedly low mileage, replacement installed by a reputable shop, and they installed a new clutch "kit" as well. I also asked them to install a new lower engine/transmission mount that I had had sitting around...

My 2004 EX Element with 244,xxx miles started having this issue yesterday. I parked at a park (and shut the car off and got out to walk around..) and made a call, and went back to start my car and this happened: It didn't start, as if I had only turned the key to accessory, which I don't think...

Hey y'all, I just recently purchased a used 2008 honda element with 290,000 miles on the odometer, and I've encountered an interesting noise at 70 mph. It's sort of a dull whine that is only there for half a second, then it goes away for a couple seconds, then comes back for about 3/4 of a...

I’ve change the tensioner pulley wheel and the belt recently. Still squeaky. It’s extra bad when it’s cold or wet out. And most of the time it goes away after the engine warms up. What else could the squeak be?

I did the breaks and rotors on my EX 04 a few weeks ago and have noticed this noise ever since. Important to note: before I did my breaks there were a bunch of noises so I am not sure if this noise was present before. It sounds like a whale groaning and happens whenever I come to a slow/stop...

Hey Everyone, Just wanted to throw my issue out there for some feed back. Will be taking the girl into the shop soon anyways, but would really like to narrow the issue down. When driving up to speed <25mph I hear a grinding noise shortly after I let off the throttle. I could be in 2nd-5th gear...

When I am at 55MPH and above I hear a loud test tone like noise in the cabin. It does not happen every time. When I let off the gas it goes away. It is driving me crazy. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hey All, Just started hearing this a couple of weeks ago when the weather got cold. Car has 235K on it and I've had it since it was a baby (04).:-D Done most of the maintenance myself and replaced the drive belt a couple of years ago. The whine is louder in colder weather starts (below 40)...

I just bought a 2005 EX AWD 5 speed with 93000 miles on it. Got it from a really good reputable Honda dealership here in Mass. Test drove it twice. Drove good. Didn’t notice any real issues. Take it home. The next day go to work and get stuck in traffic. Then I notice as I’m starting to pull...

Hi guys!. First, I love Elements, but here in Mexico are very very uncommon, so finding one is very hard, besides that, I have its little brother, an 02 CRV. And I have a problem I want to get fixed, or at least, getting to know the cause, and being aware that Elements and CRVs share a lot of...

Element has 250k on it. It’s been properly maintained. Recently replaced the serpentine belt and tensioner. Flushed the transmission. Changed the oil. New struts. New battery. Etc. It’s hard to pinpoint exactly. I’m guessing timing chain? Or timing chain tensioner? Any advice is much appreciated!

Okay, so I'm driving in Houston traffic heading N on I-45. Usual idiot drivers, but I am abnormally impatient on this evening after work downtown. I feel a little aggressive, a little road-rage session wanting to happen....but no.....I grumble and bitch to no one listening....and the moment...

Yes, I know this is a pretty common topic. But there are so many potential causes, my hope is that with a good description someone can help narrow my problem down a bit. 2003 Element, AWD and auto trans, 134K miles, a recent purchase so I don't know its history. I just had the rear struts...

Hi Everyone, I'm new here, and super pumped about my new 06 Element EX FWD. I had the Right Lower Trailing Arm replaced and now when I go over a bump or pot hole that is anything bigger than a sewer grate I hear a clunk noise. It's only when driving over bigger stuff and coming from the right...
