well i had the car parked for about 3 wks.i started it up and sounded likey a squeky/clicking noise.


it only happens when i start the car up,when i give barely any throttle and sometimes when i let off throttle.once i give plenty of throttle it goes away.

doesnt sound like its coming from the valve cover,etc.

anyone know what it may be?sorry for not many details but thats what it is.

started after car was parked a while.havent felt like i lost power/driving is perfectly fine.when i get a chance im gonna jack up the car and see if i can find anything,just no time lately.so i figured id ask evom

thanks in advance

I'm gonna take a shot and say it was your car just trying to start, but since you left it sitting the fuel took alittle while to shoot out, considering you have a turbo timer. I kinda get the same if I let me car sit for awhile, but I have a aftermarket FPR.

When you say squeaky, it could be the belt. Try some belt dressing and see if it goes away.

no nothing with the clutch,seems fine.

its a squekyrattling sounds..sounds like the left side on the engine bay as your driving.

like i said it makes a quick squeak once start up,and then sometimes will driving with little throttle,but once i give more throttle it goes away.

Any update here, I have the same issue. It seems to squeak as I change my throttle angle.
