Honda Car Forum

Well, this only proves how little I know about cars: after changing oil and
air filter, I took the car to the shop and it turns out that
the problem is not really with the engine but with exhaust pipe, which is
now fixed. The problem became much worse over the
course of the last couple days that it became clear, even to me, that the
sound was not coming from the engine. I am sorry for giving
misleading information. I really apprecaite all the advices you gave me, and
all the effort to have this resolved.

Thanks again to all of you who replied to my message.

No problem. As long as you found the real problem and were able to take
care of it for the least possible cost!
