Thread: Strange Noise

Hello all! New member here, i am having trouble figuring out a noise from my car. The sound sounds like if a metal fan blade was barely touching something else metallic and only does it when the passenger side is elevated or going around a right turn, ive checked all the bearings in the pulley's and checked that nothing was at all touching them, its not the power steering pump or the water pump, it has new belts and all fluids are good. It honestly sounds like its coming from the center of the engine but ive been underneath and cannot find whats making the noise. Thanks in advance! P.S. Probably should add that it's a 2007 Grand Prix GT S/C

Thank you for the reply, i did read that somewhere but when making a right turn wouldn't it go away from the flex plate?

well im replacing a hub assembly among other things tomorrow so ill pop it off, is it pretty straight forward to take the starter off?

oh ok gotcha, sounds alot easier than replacing the timing cover in the winter this past year lol

Thank you sir, i really appreciate it!

Wow that's deep bro, makes sense but damn, whoever made that connection either had to have replaced the starter when it eventually failed and just then realized the noise went away lol probably marched right over to his scrap pile to inspect the old one.
