What causes the loud engine noise in the eighth-generation Accord?
2 Answers
The reason for the loud engine noise in the eighth-generation Accord is insufficient engine power. Related introduction: 1. Overview: An engine (Engine) is a machine capable of converting other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines (reciprocating piston engines), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines, etc.), jet engines, electric motors, etc. For example, an internal combustion engine typically converts chemical energy into mechanical energy. 2. Expansion: An engine can refer to both a power generation device and the entire machine including the power unit (e.g., gasoline engines, aircraft engines). The engine was first developed in the UK, so the concept of an engine originates from English, with its original meaning referring to "a mechanical device that generates power."
It's quite common for my eighth-generation Accord to develop louder engine noises over time, mostly due to oil-related issues. For example, insufficient oil level or overdue oil changes can degrade oil quality, reducing lubrication and causing the engine to make gurgling sounds. Additionally, aging or loose belts may produce squealing noises, especially noticeable during cold starts in winter. Exhaust pipe leaks can also contribute—check the connections or weld points. With an older car, regular maintenance is key. Change the oil and belts periodically, and don’t wait until the noise becomes severe to act, avoiding unnecessary repair costs. Check the oil dipstick weekly to keep the level midway—it saves money and hassle.
