Loud engine rattling noise with cold start up. Happens every time now.
My car has a high oil consumption problem, which is causing rattling sound to come from the engine. I'm afraid that my engine might catch file because of excessive oil consumption. It looks like this is a known problem, and there has been a recall as well. I've been complaining about this problem to the Honda dealer from past two years, but they never told me about the recall and were asking me money in the range of $3000-$4000 to fix it. Now when I know that it was part of the recall, they are saying that the car is out of warranty and I've to pay everything from my pocket. Https://static. Nhtsa. Gov/odi/tsbs/2016/sb-10083874-2280. Pdf I feel the Honda dealers are cheating their customers, not informing them about the potential issues, and trying to gouge them thousands of dollars for fixing their cars. We, as a consumer, do not know much about the vehicle internal workings, so have no choice but to agree to whatever they ask to charge.
Engine oil consumption is more and causing burning of engine oil very frequently. This is causing rattling noise when accelarating and would cause more damage to engine and can be hazardous if driving on highway.
Honda Accord 2009 - currently 62k miles. Engine rattles on start up and also on acceleration. Contacted Honda dealership about the sporadic flashing oil light and rattling noise. Dealership confirmed no leaking oil, but there was oil consumption. Now involved with a oil consumption test. Dealership couldn't replicate the rattling noise. We never received the notice from Honda on the service bulletin about oil consumption. Currently 1k miles into the consumption test and we are halfway to the lower mark on the dipstick. Updated the dealership of the status and was told not to bring it back until it was at the lower mark on the dipstick. Car continues to have the rattling noise, which now the dealership is advising us that is a separate issue. Currently still covered under the extended warranty for this issue, but a test has to be completed before the issue is resolved. Extended warranty should have taken affect without any testing, since this is a known issue and needs to be dealt with immediately instead of waiting around until someone gets injured or more damage is done to the car. This needs to be fixed for every car that was listed in that bulletin.
I hear the rattle noise when cold start engine only 87,000 miles I read the bulletin service they said that noise from defective vtc actuator that valve is control timing to advance and retart depend on engine speed to help control emission to help the environment and less pollution.
Loud rattling noise upon cold start. Honda says no fix available. Sounds like metal on metal and Honda can not fix this?.
There is a loud rattling noise coming from the engine (which lasts for a couple of seconds) when I start the car. The noise worsens in loudness and duration in the cold weather.
