My car has been making rattling noises up front, morely on the left tire. I could feel it driving, and hear it so I took it in. A car shop said they couldn't find what was wrong with it after inspecting it for around two hours, so I took it to Cleo Bay Honda. They tell me after all day of looking at it that my struts are leaking fluid and need to be replaced.....took from eight in the morning till three in the afternoon to find this out? And on top of that they said the charge to check it out is voided for some odd reason...guy just said don't worry about it? My car has 26000 miles on it and in my eyes and the mechanics should not be having this problem. I think they weren't too sure either what was wrong with it, so they voided the charge and gave me an educated guess....Struts would make since as seeing if either were going out (or both in this case) that the car would rattle up there and ride rougher...but them not charging me and taking that long to asses the situation makes me curious? What do yall think?

 

not all at once now........

 

if its still under warrenty they should have replaced your struts no questions asked if they are bad.

 

its an 02 si, and the warranty that I bought doesn't cover struts

 

So its only a problem while driving right? Drive really slow and see of it still makes the same sound. It might be as simple as the strut. Best you can do is get up under there and inspect the brake system and make sure all bolts and nuts are tight on the suspension.

 

already done, everything is tight as can be, honda wants 1100 to do both....so upset

 

It might be something loose in there, just take a peek and see if something dangles around.

 

Just do what i do: Hit **** with a hammer and just start taping random ****.

Screw Honda btw. 1100 to do what you can do yourself. F that.

 

I've done that to, nothing is hanging, bolts are all tight, everything looks to be in the right place....don't worry before I pay that, I want to make sure theres nothing else wrong..where would be a good place online to find struts? cause honda can kiss my *** on there price

 

it mighta just been busy. i work at a chevy dealer in the shop, and sometimes, ppl will bring their cars in and wait a hour or even more until its actually brought into the shop when its a hecktic or busy day.
