Your 94 cavalier takes 5or6 tries to start starter whines but engine wont turn over is it a starter problem or some other component on the starter that needs replace?

Whines? If its not a grinding scritching noise more common then just a whine, if it is indeed a whine I would tend to think that your starter's drive roller clutch is worn to the point that the drive will need replacing, they are about $10=20. likely time for a starter overhaul, Bushings, brushes, Solenoid.


Is a whining noise at idle due to a faulty power steering pump on an 02 Honda Accord?

Not necessarily. A belt, a pulley, a bearing can produce a whine. I have the same car with the same problem, I suspected power steering pump too because the whine's intensity increases when i turn the wheel... - Check the O-ring on the power steering pump. It's a 60cent part that will more than likely fix your problem. It takes about 5 minutes to install. You can do a google search for it and find the Honda tech article and Youtube video on how to replace it.

Why does your 96 Honda Accord with 200000 miles make a noise only when backing up?

because the reverse gears are designed differently. Because you don't use reverse as much as the other gears it's make cheaper, so it ends up making a whine while you back up. hope this helped

What can cause high pitched whine in 95 Honda Accord only when car is moving after driving for 30 miles?

it could be anything. i would personally take it to a shop and see what they say b/c if you just ignore it, it could cause more problems and you want to hit the problem head on and not make the problem worse.


You just replaced the starter on your car and now the check engine light is on and it is making a high-pitched whine or zing sound right after the car starts what could be the reasons?

Sounds as if the starter bendix is staying engaged in the fly wheel. Possible wrong starter or starter needs shimmed down out of the fly wheel .

What would cause a car to whine and crank when trying to start it after 8 or so idle hours you have replaced the starter it is a Chevy s10 2001?

Did you follow the starter alignment instructions when you replaced the starter? Are you getting oil on the Bendix? That could cause the starter gear to engage slowly. It is possible that the replacment starter has a problem. Also, if the previous starter had the same problem it could have damaged the gear on the flex plate.
