November 15, 2011 at 11:00 am in reply to: Murmur noise from a 2003 Toyota Corolla. Front or Rear Bearings? #449569i have a similar problem on my car. i did some tests with a stethoscope and couldnt hear anything. if you rotate the wheels sometimes the noise will move with the tires. i would try using a stethoscope. i had to take the brakes off because they were rubbing on the calipers but couldnt hear any abnormal noises so we rotated the tires and still couldnt find it. i think it has died down a bit so it might be the tires. i didnt feel like replacing a bearing that i didnt know was bad so im just going to wait until it gets loud enough to tell where it is from. then it will be obvious and make some weird sounds and i will be sure that that is the right bearing to replace
maybe make sure the valve is opening to let coolant into the heater at least i think thats what its for im not really qualified to answer this just a thought

November 7, 2011 at 11:00 am in reply to: throttle body cleaning problems 2000 honda accors 4 cyl ulev #455563thanks for the replies. i think the check engine light was caused by the air fuel mix while the car was idling it seemed to run rich for a few seconds and started shaking. i think thats what caused it but now it runs great

i only use premix when i have to. i dont think filtered water will hurt it. distilled is probably better but not a necesity
