Baffled by annoying Squeaking Sound

[xdarkxfirex]

I've had this since last year. I first thought it was the sway bar bushings, or suspension, but they are all fine. I changed two motor mounts that were bad and though they might be the problem, and I'm still getting this issue.

It happens when you put the car in D or shift into R. The transmission shifts fine. I replaced the transmission fluid with full synthetic WS compatible last spring at 50k. The sound usually stays there and comes back and goes. Sometimes you hear it over bumps or when you accelerate

Could be coming from the springs, mine creak a lot.

check the exhaust connection at the header. Sometimes the spring bolts will squeak.

Probably that. When the vehicle is cold and hasn't been run for a while: leave it in Park with ebrake off, have someone rock the vehicle forwards/backwards. This will flex the engine on it's mounts and cause that joint to flex (and probably squeak).

Cheers.

I hear that same sound coming from the apartment upstairs...and yes I hear more when they seem to accelerate.:iono:
