Assuming something isn't broke it is more likely the strut that is worn out. Bearing would grind all the time. When the strut is worn out and you go over a bump the tire will leave the ground which lets it vibrate and make noise.

What is the rattling sound in transmission?

Static ______________________________________________________________________ Rattling is not a usual complaint for a transmission. Cracked flex plate, loose bolt holding the flex plate to the torque converter, spider gears going bad. Does it all the time or only when moving? Starter not disengaging all the way and catching the teeth on the flex plate. Hard to know without hearing it.


Has anyone tried any head gasket repair kits?

The only time you can repair a head gasket is when coolant is going out the exaust. If the radiator is being pressurized it will not work. If coolant is getting into the oil it may work also but could cause bearings to fail in the process. One of several products depending on where you are at, generic name of liquid glass. Comes in either a can or bottle. In the bottle you can see it separated out, clear liquid on top and copper flakes on the bottom. I have never had it fail as long as the coolant is going out the exaust.

When should ball joints be relaced on a 1998 crv?

Ball joints only really need to replaced when they are going bad. Usually you can tell if you put one hand on the 12 oclock position and the other on the 6 oclock position and try to wiggle the the tire. If it wiggles this way then ball joints are going bad. (Jack the vehicle up first). If you put one hand on the 3 oclock and the other in the 9 oclock position and wiggle it and it moves then the tie rods are going bad. If the whole tire moves in and out then the bearings are usually going bad. Hope this helps.

Your battery light came on while driving lights dimmed car lost power and you hear a rattle noise in the front sometimes is this a battery issue or the alternator?

The rattling may be the bearings going out of your alternator. Batteries normally do not rattle. If the bearings are going out they may begin to seize up and instead of the alternator pulley turning, the belt is slipping on the pulley as the bearings get tight. Take the belt off the alternator pulley and see if you feel and grinding or tightness when you spin the pulley. If you do, change it out now. The reason the lights are going dim is because your alternator is not spinnign at the needed rpms to keep the battery charged and thus the dimming and slowing eventually you will have a dead battery too boot.
