Whenever i either roll or put it in reverse and start going backwards a loud noise comes from what sounds like the rear of the car. This only happens sometimes, but is starting to scare me. If anyone could help me that would be great or i think im just going to take it to honda first thing in the morning tomorrow. And also jus a side question, but does anyone know how well the GPW touch up paint matches?

 

1. Brake pads could be sticking to the rotors, try no e-brake at some point

2. Axle splines moving in the hubs: Rear axle nuts need to be re-torqued to 220 ft-lbs

- yea the paint matches good...just dont put too much

- if your rotors are rusty...its normal..

 

I had the same noise and it was the axlee nuts. I have an 02, Honda replaced the nuts and added some lubrication under a TSB

 

i was thinking of jus telling Honda about the problem and having them fix it , whether if be the axle nuts or what not. but do you think they will over price me or should i buy the nuts and torque them myself. And how exactly do you torque them to 220 ft lbs

 

your camera mans foot...id be making loud noises too if u backed up over me

 

First, no being remotely mechanically inclined, I would bring the car to the Honda dealer and have him check it out.

The GPW touch up paint works well as long as you do the following:

1. Shake it extremely well. When you think you have shaken it enough, shake it some more. When your're ready to stop shaking it, shake it more. Now, make sure the chip area is clean.

2. Then use a tooth pick to dab on a little paint. Better this way than too much paint. After 5 minutes, dab on more paint with the tooth pick. Keep going until desired results.

 

Thanks for the replys and help fellas

 

really most honda touch up OEM is horrible

 

I have the same noise....Thanks for answering the question.....Incidentally,I had the same problem on my 2000 Civic Si.....
