      Rattle noise coming from 2.4l 2005 Acura TSX. 187k miles. Water pump? Seems to be coming from pulley side.

      Thanks

        A $3 mechanic’s stethoscope will pinpoint the noise quickly.

          I have one and I have tried it. The most intense rattle vibration is felt/heard at the pulley side of the alternator. Also, the alternator noise was around 3x other accessories. I removed the belt and ran for a few seconds to confirm it’s an accessory. I’m guessing water pump or alternator.

          I ordered a new alternator.
