Hey guys.. So my battery light came on last month after a long trip from out of town during Thanksgiving. Took it to the shop and they said my charge is low. Assuming the alternator was going out. Looked online for days to find a rebuilt one.. (Didn't want to pay a lot for a newer one, but I...

Hey guys.. sorry for the delay. So, I took my car to the shop to have a professional take a look at it. Everything looked good, except my front right tire was very out of balance.. left tire is slightly bent. I think he meant the rim? Not sure. This must have happened when I wasn't paying...

Possibly! I'm so badly uneducated about cars, but I'm a quick learner when people give me instructions. lol. I'll jack it up and check it out. I was having this issue before the new tires were put on in the back. Front 2 are... at least 5-6 months old. Back tires were badly cupped. I figured an...

So it looks like both right and left motor mounts are cracked. Not much engine movement when I rev the engine in drive with the brake or in reverse. There's a little.. but not too too much. Was told that the mounts will probably need to be replaced.. Also was told that the transmission mount...

Thanks for the replies.. Wasn't able to look today.. but will look at everything you all suggested. One other thing that might help.. Even when I'm slowly driving.. lets say 5-10mph, my steering wheel with gently move back and forth. Like something is lose. But yeah.. will keep you all updated...

Unfortunately I'm back with some more problems with my car. Had two new tires put onto my car a few weeks back and also an alignment. Been experiencing some shaking and couldn't figure out what it was. Thought it could be cupped tires/alignment. Drove smooth for about 2 days, then went back to...

Update - Replaced my distributor, no CEL anymore. I now have noise coming from somewhere in the engine, but I can't pinpoint it. This is the same noise that I heard coming from what I had replaced, and well.. Apparently that didn't fix the problem.. Only fixed the CEL. I did buy a new throttle...

Will do. Thank you all for the help. Probably one of the best sites I've been to for Honda advice! Will recommend others to come here if they have questions. You guys are awesome. :)

Best to replace the entire distributor or get those parts and replace them?

Codes read 4 and 7. 4 read first then 7. Is their a priority with code reads? I have a print out of these codes. TDC/CRANK/CYL Sensor for 4.. Throttle Angle Sensor CKT is 7. These need to be replaced, obviously. Anyone know prices, etc;?

Quick question. I'm doing this first thing tomorrow morning and was wondering as I was looking up the information you provided. Is it going to be an issue that my light only comes on when the car is actually turned on and sitting idle for a few minutes? That's the only way it'll come on. Other...

I'm not trying to mock anyone of their advice. I apologize if it seems that way. I will look at the instructions again and do exactly what it says. Thank you all for your advice and if anything comes back that I don't know what it's about, I will come back here and post the question. If I don't...

I'm sorry, I didn't miss anything. I'm afraid of anything electrical and anything that is in regards to cars, especially when I know nothing about them, even IF I have instructions. :???: I will do what I can. Thank you. :)

Eh. He came over, looked around. Car is too old to plug in, didn't know anything about going through the kick panel. Said sorry then left. 3rd person I've been told that they don't feel comfortable or know anything of checking codes because it's older. One says it could fry the harness, other...

Hold that thought.. Got a family member coming over to check the light and the distributor. I'll post the info once he's finished and ask him if he sees any type of red dust inside. :)

From my understanding, when I took it to the shop to have the check engine diagnosis, he checked my battery to see if the alternator was powering okay. Then, he noticed the noise coming from the distributor. When he grabbed ahold of it tightly, it wouldn't be so loud, but then when he released...

Will check out the video. Thank you!

Yeah, that's what we're thinking is the problem. That's the exact noise we're hearing. Could this cause the light to come on? We're starting off with the smaller problems first, then working on the bigger ones.

I'm new here, so I apologize if this is in the wrong section. I previously posted on a different forum, but I hadn't noticed that I posted in 8th generation, rather than 5th. (Different website) I've been having issues with my 92 Honda Civic LX. It started about a year ago (I know -_-) and...
