This morning I started up the car and I heard a higher pitched buzzing sound from the front-right side of the car. I couldn't locate the exact component making the sound but most definately the sound was coming from behind the front-right tire area.
Anyone know what this could be?

The buzzing sounded similar to what you hear at an electrical post but in a higher pitch. I wondered if something got wet with all the rain in So. Cal and I did drive on the right side of the street where all the water forms.

Any insights would be so helpful.

 

According to some of the postings, it could be:

1) A bad clutch disc - I believe there was a TSB issued, but I think Honda corrected the issue for the AP2 model.

2) The heat shield - Under the hood is a black heat shield on the passenger's side of the car. The shield sometimes vibrates against the screw that is clamped (mounted) one of the air conditioner lines. To fix this problem, simply move the heat shield away from the screw.

Dunno what else it could be...anyone else??

 

Starter?

 

I'm not sure if it's the starter?? b/c my car had no problems turning on.
