Okay, its been about 1 year that I have owned my 95' Sc3. I love it , no worries, change the oil, did brake work, lowered a lil with tein. Replaced the rear main seal TWICE! Its fine now, no leaks ...no more smoke . Now I have owned 3 civics prior to this car and I am getting more familiar with it everyday. This morning I woke up late to work, rushed out the house, and sped off, now I spun wheels (maybe half a seconds worth) but right after i did my car seemed different. When I approached the stoplight i reved it to 2k and it took a slower time to get back to normal idle. and i could here the higher noise in the front, (sounded like the tension for th belt was strained (i dunno tho)). If I was immobile and truned the wheel from left to right, you would here the strain in the power steering, the lil whine. By the time i got to work (45 min drive) the powersteering noise subsided, and the rev noise dissipated. But I thought it was a clutch issue at first because it reminded me of my civic, (doing a burnout, warming up yoru clutch etc) but the gears were not slipping and tranny-wise things seemed to be okay, but I don't know guys I'm still learnign this car. I thought it would be clutch issue since there was tire spin it strained the waorn clutch and made things worse, PLEASE HELP


**excuse typos, I'm at work sneeking this on here**

 

Noise from the pwr steering pump is probably your problem. Check it out if it's the original might be time to change it out.

 

Try some Lucas.... it worked for me.. their products work so good I think I may drink a shot to see if feel better, lol

 

ah hahahahaha! thats hilarious.

 

i'll try that, and update you all when i do. But i honestly think its more than the PS, because Like i said it was after the lil burnout which strained the clutch
