idle noisey?

[iamjack]

hey peeps
recently my car start idling pretty noisey which has gotten to be very annoying
someone mentioned it couldve probably been my airfilter, i have the stock box filter, so i changed the filter today and its still abit noisey
what else do you suspect can be the problem?

ive got a local ck4 lancer

thanks a heap!

[*KRONIK*]

how u mean idling noisy???

[iamjack]

umm when i start the car in the morning and its warming up, its pretty loud or even when the car on park, its worst if the a/c is on as well

noisy = loud

[centralized(m)]

IAC vavle maybe dirty!!!!!!

[fras]

[*KRONIK*]

describe the sound nah... where it comin from and what it sound like

i was tinkin around them same lines

[iamjack]

heard it could be a bearing?
my idle is around 600-800rpm

still thinking how to describe a sound via words
will return when i do

thanks for the advice thus far

[venum]

well

[iamjack]

i think its the engine
when im warming up the car, i kinda accelerate it cause it cuts off when its cold
when im driving and accelerating, the engine seems strained and i think thats where the noise is coming from, its really noisey, like a strained noise when im accelerating

[fras]

[ronsin1]

mee too can't help unless I know what it sounds like

tomorrow im going to the mechanic, so hopefully it'd be solved

[fras]

CK, CS, CY lime on the 19th @ Dex, bring the noise maker

[ronsin1]

I lil birdie told me that on the 19th it might just be the biggest crew turn out ever

[illumin@ti]

ORLY and i'll be in bago that weekend

[jab2001ph]

may be...
1. try checking your idle servo motor if it moves back and forht by reversing the battery voltage
2. idle speed control
3. MAF sensor
4. TPS
hope this helps

[jab2001ph]

oops when you reverse the battery i mean, the supply voltage of the motor, try reversing it.

hey guys
thank you for being patient and helpful despite how vague i was by trying to describe the noise
i went to the mechanic and he referred me to an Auto A/C guy
cause apparently it was the bearing that was bad (need to stop going through flood, thats what weared it down after awhile he said)
it was a long day, to get the bearing out, buying a new one then going to the machine shop, had to go back in and then gas the A/C up cause it had to be drained to remove the bearing

[fras]

good u got that sorted out... noise on a car not easy

[idlemind]

now theres a fella that drives with AC on right thru

[fras]

who that

[idlemind]

boss here coulda take off the AC and realise the problem long time

[sickolancergyal]

Hey where did u get the a/c bearing i need one and how much did it cost. No where had

one and i didn't want to unmount a bearing just so they know if any other bearing can

work. I have the same problem...idling loud bcuz of the bearing. Never change it in

the 10 years we had the car. lol

[iamjack]

now theres a fella that drives with AC on right thru

with this heat, even in the night i need on that A/C when im driving

i got the bearing in chaguanas, considering you're from Arima "sickolancergyal" thats gonna be kinda far
i paid $200 for it
machine shop charged $50 to press it in
and labour was $600 i guessing refilling the gas for the AC is expensive
i felt $850 poorer

[idlemind]

anything AC-wise is expensive.

car know when is monthend yes

[ronsin1]

I going by the A/C guy middle of this month I have to change Dryer and expansion valve then re-gas might cost me a little over $600.00 (my estimated price)

[sickolancergyal]

Are u kidding i drive all over the place. lol will be in chaguanas tom. where u got it ????

I'm was going to my mechanic who normally charges a low cost. but now i studying if i

shld if he has to gas the a/c back. what u guys think ?? I guess i'll ask him.

[iamjack]

can't remember the name of the parts place, will find out today
and call you back

to change the bearing firstly you have to drain the gas and then gas it back when you're finished
so the answer is yes, you'd have to gas it back if you want the A/C
