Hi all, 2008 Accord 2.4L Auto, 92k miles
This morning we drove the car to church and I/we didn't hear or notice anything out of the ordinary. After church the wife took the car shopping upon returning she parked it in the driveway. I went out to move the car and immediately noticed that when I touched the gas I got a small brand new whining noise. The wife was standing there and also said "did you hear that" I had her touch the gas a bit as I listened under the hood it sounds like its coming from the PS pump? Fluid level is fine, here is a pic.
the fluid isn't dark but it has a "burnt electrical/rubberish" smell to it? It isn't reddish like the new fluid.
I kinda need to drive the car to work tomorrow as it is supposed to rain tomorrow but I guess ill take the motorcycle...
What do you guys think? Whining makes me think its the bearing? If it was would I chew up the belt? The belt looks perfectly fine.
Or the slightly burnt smell has nothing to do with it and the alternator is going out....?
