Hi again. Yes, I have another mystery noise. I wasn’t sure if I should have just used the same post, so I just created a new thread. Here are the details:
To me it sounds like it has something to do with liquid flowing through something. I can hear it when I am slowing down or speeding up, but it isn’t that loud. I can hear it prominently when I am at a stopsign or stoplight. I can hear it a little bit when I am in park. However, when I turn the AC on it is very loud.
More info: I added some anti-freeze to bring it up to the correct level and I also added a quart of oil because it was low.
My gut, which was wrong with the power steering pump situation, is telling me that it is the water pump.
I am going to guess there is air in the coolant and right now at least some of it is in the heater core.I agree. Bleeding the air out of the cooling system is the first thing to do.
Air in the coolant? How does that happen?
Here is what I found out today. I had a mechanic friend check it for me and he says that it is the a/c compressor and that it won’t effect any other systems in the vehicle.
