The motor has 53k miles on it. 4 cyl. When you're at ~1100RPM (decelerating/braking, accelerating) there's a metallic grinding noise that's coming from the timing belt vicinity. Anyone know what it is? Alternator bearing? Water pump?
If my description doesn't help, I suppose I can post a video. Thanks!

i've had the loose heat shield/cracked header sound in my other honda/acuras before.. it's not the same sound. the ones i experience before was kind of a hollow droning. this one is more of a metallic rubbing. hope that makes sense?
