Guest gaf_faulk Posted April 23, 2003 Report Share Posted April 23, 2003 Ok I have a 2001 Honda Accord EX. The steering squeaks everytime you turn the wheel. What the hell is it! There is nothing to lubricate that I can see. Is it a ball joint going out? Anyone?.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotarded1647545491 Posted April 23, 2003 Report Share Posted April 23, 2003 It would be impossible to tell without hearing the noise. A few of the many possiblities are: Roll Coil (wiring coil to horn and airbag) Steering linkage Column Shroud Steering wheel shroud Your best bet is to just stop in a local Honda dealer and ask someone to listen to it without actually paying to have a "diagnostic" run. Just say you want to know if it is a safety issue. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahnstoermer1647545488 Posted April 23, 2003 Report Share Posted April 23, 2003 Uh oh... Hondas require special P/S fluid if I remember (watched g/f in HS pick up her new Accord and heard the sales guy go on and on about it..) So hopefully you didn't put it off the shelf stuff.

If not, and the purchase date was fewer than 3 years ago that it would be covered under warranty. It's hard to say what the squeak is, most likely it's a balljoint. If you want stop into Hugh White Honda between the times of 7am and 2:30pm and I would be glad to take a look at it. Ask for Ricky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gaf_faulk Posted May 1, 2003 Report Share Posted May 1, 2003 A BIG THANK YOU to bigbabyjesus for help on the Honda. It was the balljoints making the noise which bbj replaced for me. Thank you again. Now the Honda can continue its job of keeping the SS in the garage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slow4now Posted May 2, 2003 Report Share Posted May 2, 2003 You're welcome! I'm not sure if my boss told ya, but you don't have Honda Care...but we took care of the cost on the Upper Control Arm and Lower Ball Joint. Just be sure to bring your car to Hugh White for service.
