Sqeak, squeal
Everytime I start the car after it's been parked for awhile, it would make a high pitched squeal after I turn the key. It lasts for about 1 sec. It sounds like something is spinning up and is coming from the engine compartment. I opened the hood of the car to see if I can see something when it starts but it does not make that sound when I have it open.
Before I take it in for service, anyone have any general ideas?

sounds like one of your belts is a bit loose.

I wonder if it has something to do with the AC since that was something I had the dealership install. The engine will start, then like 1 sec later, I hear this squeal then it goes away. Then when I park and start, I hear it again.
I'll bring it in today and see what they do and update this thread just in case someone else in the future has the same problem.

I have the same problem too. Every morning when I start the car, I hear a high pitch squeak for about 1 sec. It never happen when I first bought the car 3 weeks ago. My cousin's car also have the same problem only his last for about 3-5 secs. I wonder if it's normal. It's kinda frustrating because when you take it to the dealer, the car's fine, so the technicians can't really figure out the problem unless they see/hear it themselves.

this is not normal. A belt is loose. Have them tighten it. I had them do it.
I brought it in and it didn't make a squeak. left it over night. When I first bought my car, it was fine too, then it started squealing. at first it was only when i start the engine, then days later it was when I braked or clutched. you have a manual or auto?

I keep getting a rattle in my liftback.
Narrowed it down to the third brake light housing. Tried a few things but it keeps coming back. Also have that thing when first starting up, put in in reverse and hear a rattle for the first few seconds of accelerating, sounds like a heat shield or something vibrating. |
