Squeaky Noise

[strange]

Heya fellas, i've experiencing some squeaky noises coming out from my car, what are the possibilities of these noises to come from? anybody have got any idea? need some help with it.. thanks!

could it be from your suspension?

does it sound only when the car is rolling? Or when idle? or when it goes over bumps?

is it a constant squeak?

PS:has your lip gone on yet bro?

[strange]

i'm not sure if it's the suspension bro, and i'm not sure does it have the sound when it's rolling... i only hear it when it's on idle... it's a constant squeak... hell yeah!

the lip will be fixed on friday...

shouldn't be too embarassing anymore with the lip attached back =P

Check your drive belts

I had a similar prob

[Demon Dave]

It sounds like one of your drive belts is slipping...

[strange]

dudes? drive belts? do you mean fan belt and stuff?

if it is, i've just got them replaced 2 weeks back...

is it a major problem for belts to slip?

[initialD]

I think it really maybe ur timing belt as it is probably worn.

[AeroGrace]

just pop your hood when it's idle to check if the sound is confirmed to be from the engine bay....or possibly the belts area...

i thought the last time you replaced the fan belts was cos of the sqeaking? now it's sqeaking again?

me reckons to get it looked at soon if it's indeed the timing belt.....potential disaster if it snaps:(

[strange]

right, i'll get it checked... probably replaced the timing belt first...

it's mission critical!

[Hiroshima Screamer]

when dose it happen ? soon as you turn the car or on ? or when you drive it and or turn ?

[strange]

soon as i turn my car on dude...when i drive the car... i can't hear the squeaky sounds though...

[AeroGrace]

drive easy for now...

[Hiroshima Screamer]

well dosnt sound like you power steering belt , and u dont want it to be timing belt , very bad get it checked and to be on the safe side dont drive it

[AeroGrace]

[Hiroshima Screamer]

i had similar noise , turned out to be power steering belt maken the rackit

[AeroGrace]

i'd always thought power-steering uses a pump?

[strange]

just came back from the garage..

i'm scheduled to go for timing belt change on tuesday next week...
