RE: 04 accord making whinig sound when cold
 

warranty is out, whats the abs self check?never heard of it

RE: 04 accord making whinig sound when cold
 

when you first start the car and the abs pressurizes/checks itself out then it can make a noise (more like a low rumble in my book...) if you hear a squeel it might be your belt, When the belt is cold if it's glazed over at all (worn) then it's not going to grip as well but when it warms up a bit it has more "grip", or it could be the belt is fine and just needs adjusted...Is it a loud noise and how long does it go on until it stops?

it usually stops once the cars warmed up 10 or 15 min maybe.Its not too much of a squeal more like a whining noise.was thinkiknk maybe its the pullys makintg that noise.Wondering if some wd 40 would work

inspect the pulleys while it's running and see if you can find out which one it is, also make sure that none of them appear to be "wobbling" you might have a bearing going out, I know that a water pump or alternator is easily capable of that.... does the noise ever go away? does it make a difference in sound or anything else if you turn on the a/c or heat? Do a quick visual inspection first and you may be able to see the pulley "wobble" if that's the problem
