Bad/Loose belts

 

what? answered in 30 minutes:29:

 

Agreed

Sounds like a slipping belt. If the belt slips when wet, it would explain both symptoms.

 

Thats happened to me a couple of times recently-05 with 101kmiles, original belt, heavy rain. I suspect the water splashes the belt causing it to slip.

I'm adding the belt to my 105k service.

If it continues post belt replacement-the tensioner is the likely culprit and should be replaced.

 

At 105 the timing belt gets replaced.

All the belts have to come off, so putting old ones back on would be the sign of a very bad shop.

 

2007, <70K miles

I started hearing a belt noise this summer, then a loud clank (like a rock stuck under carriage) on passenger side. In the rain, turning left, after puddles, battery light comes on, trip odometer goes to 0, and power steering goes out.
I drive through it now and all is fine as I straighten out. After new alternator, a great mechanic put in a new belt tensioner today. SO far so good, but time will tell. Obviously a pilot issue?

 

Replace tensioner and belt. Vehicle is too young and has too few miles to need tb replacement.

 

Yes, I have a honda pilot 2013 and it happened to me today for the first time. Is this normal?

 

Have you ever changed your serpentine belt?
