Honda Civic X front Noise

[mohsinaleei]

Hello everyone I have Honda Civic x facelift model 2019. My car millage is currently at 12000km. After that I replaced my Bg Luxo tyres with michelin primacy 4 and after that I am facing some noise problem from front wheel side it can be easily hear between 15km to 60km speed and it remain consistent like something is keep touching with tyres or like that. I changed 4-5 different type of tyres but issue is still same. My car is in warranty I went to honda gateway 7-10 times they told me you have to live with that noise there is no solution of it. What should I do? I changed even the rims because someone said may be it could be because of rims but issue is still same. The noise can be easily hear in low rpm. Its really irritating like I am driving khotaaa not civic. My car was soundless and smooth. Any suggestions?

Which tyre size is currently installed in your car?

What was the stock tyre size of BG Luxo tyres?

Currently, are the rims stock? which came with your car from the factory, or they have also been replaced?

What was the stock rim size, and current rim size?

[anon35615524]

We 1st need to rule out that tyres and rims are not the culprit.

If they get ruled out, then next would be to check for suspension, or, anything interfering with the tyres.

Did you do wheels balancing after tyres change?

Have you done wheels alignment too?

Rims are default I bought new car in sep 2019 and drove upto 12000km it was fine then I just changed tyres then noise is coming its really irritating tyre size is same like previous tyres. Its 215/55 R16 I just changed the rims just for checking then put back my original rims.

[mohsinaleei]

Obviously I told in my major post that rims and tyres are checked fully 110% damn sure its not about tyres and rims. So both things are not culprit. Yes I did tyre balancing but I think wheel alignment is not necessary or it is?

Last question related to tyres:

Were the tyres smuggled, or of proper import?

(Not always, but sometimes, smuggled tyres can cause troubles, so if they are faulty, they can also cause noises, vibrations, etc.

Apparently, they may seem fine and perfect, but in actual, they can have issues)

[anon35615524]

If you think that there is nothing wrong with the tyres, then take your ride to some garage which has lift in it. Park it on the lift, and jack it up.

Start the car and let it run at very low speeds. See, if the technical expert observes something unusual.

Like tyres rubbing / touching against anything? any vibrations, strange and abnormal noises, etc.?

During this, ensure that nothing is near the tyres, engine, etc., i.e. any moving part, else if, it can prove a very very dangerous safety hazard.

I may be wrong, and this may not be the exact solution, but still, this is all what is coming in my mind right now.

I dont know about smuggled but I changed 4-5 tyres of different companies like Yokohama, michelin primacy 4, and lastly I put its default tyres just for testing but issue is still same. It happend just after replacement of tyres my car was silent just before the tyreS replacement. Noise just came right after replacement of tyres.

[anon35615524]

Hmmm... OK. And it seems very unusual.

Wheels alignment can help, but I am not sure.

[mohsinaleei]

Ok sir I am right now going for wheel alignment because this is only the thing which is not done yet. My problem is that the noise is coming just right after tyres replacement before that there is no noise.

[anon35615524]

Let's hope that your issue gets resolved. IN SHA ALLAH. Otherwise, then only expert mechanic, like suspension guy, can be able to properly diagnose it.

[mohsinaleei]

The case is clear and make sense that there was no noise before even I went to tyres shop they changed the tyres then My car starts making noise only from front side I changed even back tyres with front and front with back but same thing happening. So its clear something went wrong during replacement of tyres. I just changed my tyres because someone said these are not good tyres and must be changed after 10-15k Km.

[mohsinaleei]

INSHALLAH brother thanks for your help ALLAH bless you.

Please also look into brake pads or calipers touching discs. That also produces weird rubbing/ brushing noise

[mohsinaleei]

Sure sir thanks much appreciated.

[anon35615524]

I just changed my tyres because someone said these are not good tyres and must be changed after 10-15k Km.

Hmmm... Not necessary and not always.

If they were working fine, and you were comfortable with them, then IMO, they may not have been replaced.

Still, what is done, is done. We should now look in to the future, and resolution of your issue.

All the Best and Good luck Dear!

[anon35615524]

Ameen. Sum-Ameen. IN SHA ALLAH.

My pleasure, and you are always Welcome.

This may also be a possibility that stock bg luxo tyres are noisy so earlier you could not hear that noise if its not related to new michelin tyres. As michelin tyres are known for comfort and quietness, so that rubbing and brushing noise is being felt now. So look into this way as well. Plus, most of the times, brakes/ calipers etc produce weird noises and one remains unable to think or consider that noise may be emerging from brakes. Hope that helps

Changing tyres and start of noise may just be a coincidence. You said Honda guy told to live with it. Did they investigate the noise or tell you what it may be ?

[Luke_mani]

Just for my information, how much did you pay for the tires?
