Listen to 98CoupeV6 on this... when I picked the car it was raining and I couldn't listen to the engine carefully. The next day when I had some time alone with the car (no kids, wife, rain or other distractions) I could listen to the engine carefully and it definetly makes a whining sound it didn't have before. I have searched this forum and found several other people that had this sound after timing belt change. I can't help but think if I had gotten Honda parts it wouldn't sound like that. The mechanic said its just a new belt and will wear in, but I don't know...
