1997 Acura Integra Repair Question
Mileage: 158,632 miles.
Why am i getting a weird engine noise after oil change
He first over filled it .
Then he noticed my oil pan gasket leaking so he tried to fix that . Now my car doesn't leak but it makes a weird loud chirping/whining. It's is not as loud any more.
My car doesn't leak any more but it does occasionaly make that noise .
My friend said he can hear it coming from the distributor.
But how can my distributor mess up with an oil change ?
BTW-
couple months prior to this my car was throwing out codes of a miss-fire in one of my cylinders. But then it stopped throwing them .
My car does idle a little hard also .

What type of weird noise are you hearing -clicking/buzzing/ticking/rattling???
The noise is a chirping whining noise sounds like it comes from under the car .
First day it was a loud whine noise kinda like a remote control car . Now its just a chirping sound that comes and goes last for about 5 mins a low speeds
Try jacking it up on all fours and closely listen to it where its coming from-hard to do over the internet-
Well it was worth a try . I live in apartments so I can't do that . I'll have to wait to my car breaks down to find out what was wrong . Thanks for the help .
Is the noise constant with engine speed or road speed?
Definetly engine speeds . You can hear it get louder at higher rpms and then get lower as my car switches gears .
i would say a belt noise, check all drive belts and have the timing belt checked as well.
I had it checked and they said they hear the noise coming from the distributor .
Still don't see how an oil change would make that go wrong .
