i drove my car last friday, saturday,& sunday i noticed theres something wrong with it... whenever i start the engine (when its cranking) i hear a weird sound like squeeking or something.. and whenever i turn the engine off before the engine shuts down i hear it you know like when the motor shakes or something when shutting down? i suspect it's the motor mounts though but not so sure about it coz my uncle's car an altima had the same prob & the dealer told him it was the mounts.. i don't exactly know what to do next coz im pretty much pissed with that sound.. do you guys think its the motor mounts?

 

So look at the motor mounts. You can see the front with hood open or both from under the car if it's on ramps/jack stands. Seems unlikely they'd go so quickly though. The oldest Lancers were only manufactured about 4 years ago.

 

yeah that's what i was thinking too and i dont want to take it to the dealer if i know i can fix it myself.. i have driven my car hard this past few days and started to notice it. i remember i launched it a couple times this weekend and i taught my gf to drive stick too.. she spun the tires one time too but i don't know

 

Serpentine belt moisture?

 

its a mitsubishi.
