Does anyone have a recommendation for an auto repair shop in either Parker or Lake Havasu City? I have a Chevy Astro and need to have an engine noise diagnosed... thanks
Thanks River. It's a medium to high pitched sound and it is constant. It started when I was idling for quite awhile during a period of a bad weather. The pitch changes when I am accelerating, but the noise never goes away. It's not awful, if I were riding in someone's vehicle I would probably accept it as a normal noise, but being familiar with my vehicle I know it's not.I was kind of trolling around on Craigslist quartziteHavasu City the other night looking at RVs and RV prices and of course employment. for some reason theres a redneck garage just struck me as a couple of guys just doing what they need to do it's always hard to find a good mechanic I've seen times where it's just crazy so if you give me a little more information about the noise on your Astro maybe it's just like an wheel on a belt or maybe is it a ticking sound inside or something else I've been doing this for a long time and I'd be like I'm glad to help you maybe you can record the noise on your phone and post it up here.that's a four three that's that's a 5-7 with two cylinders cut off of it that's a that's a rock solid motor if you didn't starve it for oil she should be home and away and get an audio of it close it up here and the rest of it will be more than the rest of us with more than happy and help you I'm sure HDR will chime in on it.try to give it a generalized area where the noise is coming from like the front end the bottom only when I put in a gear only when it back up only when it start.

Maybe but the main thing is the oil level. Does that check okay?After receiving your reply I checked my oil and found that I had left the cap off the last time I put oil in. Could that have anything to do with it?
Yes, it was within the operational range marks.Maybe but the main thing is the oil level. Does that check okay?
It's been about 3 weeks and in the meantime I've been in a lot of high winds and the rest of the engine is pretty dusty. I've decided to go to Havasu City as they seem to have a larger selection of mechanics and I'll get an oil change while I'm up there.How long (both in days and miles) has the cap been missing?
