My 94 accord ex makes this strange 'buzzing' sound intermittently. It does it all the time, i would say every two or three minutes but it only lasts about a second or two. I might describe it as a grinding sound but it sounds more like a buzz to me. Any ideas?....oh it seems to be coming from the drivers side of the engine.

 

maybe there is a bee hive in your car.

 

A rattling heat shield?

 

The ABS unit...probably low on fluid because it's probably leaking.

 

The ABS unit you say?? thats funny because i also have a problem with my ABS light coming on.....how and where do i fill the ABS unit?

 

i think it's the ABS unit too. My 95 accord has the same problem as yours. The ABS light comes on too. Now it's even worst, there's no sound anymore. It's probably dead now........

 

The ABS unit on a 5th gen Accord sits right behind the driver's headlight assembly. There's a rubber plug on the top about the size of a quarter (probably gray in color). that's where you fill the reservoir. Keep in mind there is a bulletin on this generation Accord, where the ABS unit leaks, and that's why the reservoir keeps going dry. It involves loosening and retightening some of the plugs on the ABS unit. I don't recommend you try and do this yourself, because it's a bitch. I've done a few at work...NOT easy.

 

I checked the reservoir and the brake fluid is full. The ABS light still comes on.......something really wrong with my ABS

 

Go to autozone, figure out what the code is an work from there...obviously it's connected to your problem.

 

do you know how much for autozone to check the code?
