    car engine noise

    So its not a new clutch but a bearing needed to be replaced. Had the noise for 6 months, comes and goes but now its after fast accel. Is it damaging engine? How soon should it be done and what is likely cost? Checked power steering fluid ..its full max. What other bearing could it be?

    Boot up problem

    I would carry out the HDD disk check and see if any bad sectors are found. It still could be a XP problem with drivers as is the case with SP3 i have found. I use SP2 and update to critical fixes but haven't gone SP3. If you still have warranty on your HDD you could ask for replacement.

    car engine noise

    I have a Honda 2.0 VTEC engine and it is making a whining noise after 30 mins drive...it normally happens when I labour the engine a bit, ie fast accel.. It sounds to me it might be the air filter...as it seems as the car whines at low speed or its more noticeable. Whe cold it OK but after 20...
