P500 High pitched squeal when it warms up

[Tom_C]

Finally getting out this year to ride a bit and notice a high pitched squeal, or singing, from the front end. Sort of sounds like a tea kettle. Haven't popped the hood yet but sort of expect a coolant leak or the radiator cap leaking. Anyone have that happen?

Haven't heard of that before . . .

Hard to tell you what a “squeal” sound is or if we've had the same without physically hearing it. If you are married, you should understand this 😂🤣
So take a vigea of it, load it to LubeTube, copy and paste it here. You’ll get better results

I came home today, but going back next week. I have a windshield and have to remove it to get the hood off. I was tied up, else I would have opened it up. When I'm back up there I'll have a peek, and/or take a video if I don't see anything immediately apparent.

While moving or sitting still?

 

[Tom_C]

Moving.

 

[Remington]

Moving.

Without physically hearing it, throwing darts now.
Rear brake got mud, dust crud in it?
Wash the hell out of it then try it. Only real way to check that off the list

Honda had a bulletin/article about this.

Issues with lack of lube on the front differential input seals or shaft tip.

I'll look for it

 

[Hello_Darkness]

So maybe it doesn't apply to the P500

Buy it might help

Possibly a rock hung up in the rotor? Try backing up and applying the brakes hard 2 or 3 times. If it’s a rock in a rotor it will usually back out with this method.

Issues with lack of lube on the front

I don't think it's anything in the brakes or drive shafts, but until I am back up there I won't say it isn't.

It starts when it gets hot, and when I'm moving. Slow down or stop and the noise stops... which could be indicative of something is the brakes or shafts, so I won't rule it out but it doesn't "act" like it's that. It's def coming from the front, under the hood as far as I can tell.

I was replying to the 'thread' because there was more than one person who commented. I was saying that when I am back and can answer the questions better then I will do it. But, I'll use the reply option, if that's what you would like me to do.
