Hey everyone.

Thanks for helping me identify and fix the belt tensioner issue with my 2010 Honda CRV (rattling while in drive/idle).

Now that issue is gone I’ve noticed another issue - when I accelerate lightly from a full stop, I hear rattling from the same area. It goes away if I hit the gas further and doesn’t happen all the time.

I’ll see if I can get a video but any ideas or even ideas to diagnose while not driving (in the garage).

Belt was changed first a month ago - it would slightly squeak on startup when raining then one day it was squealing loud so I went to a mechanic to change it (the belt).

Then I started hearing a slight rumble on idle (drive) which replacing the belt tensioner fixed.

Now I’m having this issue and not quite sure how to diagnose.

Can you reproduce the rattling while parked?

Nope. Seems like it needs to be in drive and also light gas (low revs).
