    Lightbulb 2013 STS experiencing noise/wobble from flywheel - any fixes & what else to check?

    I’m experiencing a noise and a wobble from my fly wheel. How can I fix this issue and what else should I be looking for to replace (i.e. teeth sprocket, belt, etc) ?

    Flywheel? Do you mean a belt pulley?

    When you write, 'fly wheel', what exactly are you referring to? The front Sprocket in its entirety; the harmonic balancer part of the front sprocket; or maybe the big drive sprocket at the back??

    Have you lifted the back wheel off the ground, and with the ignition off, gently spun the wheel while you inspect both sprockets and the belt for any damage; missing or damaged teeth in either sprocket or the belt; &/or any 'out of true' alignment as the whole lot turns? Is the rear wheel aligned and the belt tensioned properly??

    Lotsa questions, I know; but answering them will help us to help you.

    Yes, the front pulley.

    I was referring to the front sprocket. I have not attempted to spin the rear wheel to see if everything is in alignment. But, thank you for the suggestions…
