Ok so I just came back from the garage.. They say I need a new Alternator.
He popped the hood, then turned on the engine and straight away that high pitch noise came on, he then took the power out of the alternator and the sound disappeared, plugged it back and the high pitch noise came back, also mentioned that its not charging the battery as it was only 10-11V on the meter, also that it was getting pretty hot, and actually started to smell and smoke up a bit (I have no idea if these are valid tests or not, if someone could let me know)
One thing though, I mentioned before that my belt tensioner indicator is a lot like richardp2020's as in his picture..
I questioned the mechanic about this as its obviously outside of the proper range that Honda quotes, but he insists that its an auto belt tensioner and that, that is as much as it would go, and there's nothing wrong with the belt itself. Though from what you guys are saying, it sounds like there's a belt issue, causing it not to be tight enough.
So I drive off, as he's quoted £350+ for a new alternator, £300 for the alt, and an hours labour. I found a Lucas alt for £200, he said he'll fit for price of an hour. Anyway, back to what I was saying.. I drive off and a few minutes, a see it smoking up again, I pull up and switch off the engine and open the hood to check, and its pretty hot, too hot to touch and giving off a slight smell. I give it a few minutes then turn on the engine to get home (another 2 minute drive) but this time, there's no alternator noise, and the battery light wasn't on, but eventually came on after a half a minute, but no noise the journey back, no smoke either.
I have no idea what it is nor am I able to fix it as I'm no mechanic of any sort.. Just posting my story to see if anyone has any ideas/confirmation that you think it would be the alternator etc, and what you think of the mechanics treatment of the belt tensioner indicator thing.
