Post all SQUEAK complaints here
I have a very weird squeaking noise whenver i shift (specifically when i'm releasing the clutch) and this happens during smooth shifts in normal driving conditions. Don't know exactly where it's coming from but its somewhere in front of me.
Need a new clutch? New mounts maybe?

During and after engaging the clutch I will hear a squeaking/squealing noise in the low rpm range. I notice that there isn't as much power transfer when this starts happening too.
Doesn't only happen after shifting either. I can be in third around 3500 rpm and drop to about 2500, then give it some gas and I will hear the squeaking/squealing.
I have 94,000 kms on the original clutch btw.

so about 6 months ago either my alternator belt or my serpentine started squealing. It would only do so when i started my car, but eventually the squeal lasted longer and longer and would randomly squeal when i was driving, turning or not. It would always squeal really bad when it was wet outside. Well, about 2 months ago i got the belts changed and the squealing stopped. However, it started up again. Someone said I probably have a bad tensioner, and that I would need to change my water pump. Any other ideas I should check out?!
Maybe dust on the brake rotors or the brakes need replacement, one last thing it could be is if you recently had your brakes done the didn't "lath or cut" the rotors when they put on your brake pads.
I have a Squeak that comes from somewhere up front only happens when I first put a load on the engine Ex: Switching from 1st to 2nd. it's not loud, very quite actually seams to me like almost like a motor mount.

^^ check the belts!!! you probably just need to replace the drive belt and generator belt. look for cracking, dry rotting, etc. it's considered general maintenance to have these replaced around 50-60k along with the water pump
***For the guys with the rear sway bar squeaks and creaks, when you lube them with white lithium grease, make sure you use the paste grease (comes in a tub or cartridge) and not the spray on stuff. The spray on washes out too easily. A deep puddle is all it would take. I took mine apart and lubed the heck out of it a couple of years ago and haven't heard from it since. Better to take it apart and deal with it once than to have to get under there with spray grease every time it rains, which is practically daily where I live.
car squeeks like a cracked out bird when the ac is turned on!
So I searched for a bit but did not see anyone with a recent post on this. I am hearing a really crappy continuous squeeking noise whenever I turn on my cars AC (normally hear it loudest when idle at a light). Whats the best solution you have all found to take care of this type of squeak? Is it a belt that needs to be replaced? Thanks for the help.
as you can see i have an 02 lancer oz. it has a little over 90k miles and now im hearing a squeak from the front of my car. It happens if i turn either way or if i go over a bump. Any ide what it is?
