When I drive my car, I hear a really loud noise. It almost sounds like I have a huge ricer exhaust bolted to my car. When I go about 15 mph, I can hear the noise. When I go any faster than 30 mph, the noise gets really loud. When I go about 45-50 mph, the noise is loud as hell and when I go high way speeds (65-80), I have to plug my ears while I drive because its that damn loud. I thought it could be the wheel bearing/hub so I took it to my friends dealership and he checked it out for me. He said that the hubs were fine. Oh and also, the noise causes a lot of vibration in my car aswell. like i can feel my feet vibrating.

I thought that it was my tires because i have negative camber. I thought that the uneven wear was causing there to be a lot of road noise. I switched my rims to the stock wheels and tires and the noise was still there, just as loud.

I have a 2002 honda accord EX with abotu 135,000 miles on it. I also have koni yellows with ground control coilovers. the suspension has about 30 to 40 thousand miles on them.

Could anyone please tell me if they had this problem or encountered this problem before? Thanks in advance

 

any chance you been getting air in your car or hit anything in the road recently. check for holes or damage to your exhaust system

 

has to be your exhaust. check for rusty holes and cracks. it happened to me. replaced it with a custom cat back and now its great.

 

that noise just louder when you drive only? Try check in area strut or check on your header.

 

hey could you tell me what i should be looking for when checking the strut area?

 

what I mean check between strut and tire bc you have negative camber, do still hear loud noise when you warm the engine or just when you drive?

 

Horribly worn and dragging brake is a possibility. If you rev the car in neutral is the noise there and getting louder with RPM? You probably have an insane exhaust leak as others have said.

 

nah exhaust is fine. when i'm in neutral and i rev the car up, it sounds completely normal. when i'm coasting at any speed and i put the car in neutral, the car is still loud. if i'm going downhill and i'm in neutral, the more speed my car picks up, the louder the noise gets...so i'm possitive its not the exhaust. I'll check the brakes though. also, when i'm coming to a complete stop like at a red light, right before i come to a complete stop, it sounds like the something in the brakes are clicking like once or twice...i'm guessing its the horribly dragging brakes? I replaced the rear brakes like 2 thousand miles ago. also, when i pull the ebrake up, all the way, the car still rolls....so could the noise have anything to do with that?

 

why would any of you think its exhaust? 20 mph or 70mph youre still gonna be around the same rpm.


i think youre on the right track with your brakes.

 

My old car's brakes made noises as it picked up speed and it turned out to be a really worn pad.

 

It might be an exhaust leak from outside air getting into the exhaust creating more air to get into the exhaust making it get louder.
That's why it gets louder only when he drives faster and faster, and why it doesn't make any noise when the car is stationary.

Try going reverse at about 15 mph, and see if it makes any noise.

If it does, might be with the brakes.
If it doesn't, go with the exhaust leak...

 

maybe im not reading your post right but i think your wrong on all aspects of that post
