squeeling engine...
ok so my engine squeel's (if thats how you spell it) only when i move. if i just rev the engine it doesnt make the sound but as soon as i move it picks up and gets faster as i go then when i shift it starts slow again. i got the whole tune up done at 137k and i'm at 149 now so i dont think it would be anything to do with that... any ideas
thanks bobby |
bump.

What tranny?
From what you describe it doesn't seem like it would be a belt... but have you made sure they are all tight anyway? |
Do you have a manual or auto?
|
manual and no i have not tested to see if they are tight

I'd make sure the belts are in check. I have heard some weird noises come from them. It would be a lot easier to fix than do something with the tranny.
|
what could it be in the tranny. it sounds like its coming from the back of the egine. like towards the cab...
|
Pilot bearing perhaps...?
How old is the clutch? |
sounds to me like its your u-joints. any vibration?
|
I had a bad rear diff a while ago, had a horrid squeal whenever I moved. You could hear it mostly at city cruising speeds (25-45mph). On the highway it seemed like it went away but I just think you couldn't hear it over the cab noise. It ended up being a bad rear diff pinion bearing I believe. Luckily this happened 400 miles (!!!) before the warranty was out and had the dealership fix it for free. Boy I had to fight for them to fix that one. They were crying abuse/lack of maintenance...good thing I keep my maintenance records.
|
i can only hear it when i accelerate and there is no vibration so i donno if that rules out the u joints and or the rear diff. any thoughts
|
and i got the cluch replaced about a year and some months ago... i have no clue.
|
Sounds like it mainly happens when there is load on the drivetrain...could be a number of things. You'll have to isolate where it's coming from. I actually had some buddies drive next to me with their windows rolled down and sourced it that way.
|
Not to point out the obvious, but it could even be your brakes telling you they need to be changed...just a thought!
|
could it be the brakes considering its only when i give it gas while in gear acelerating? thats what i thought at first but then i ruled it out.
|
bump?

Put it up on 4 quality jack-stands SAFELY.....make sure it does not move when you shove on it real good, start it and get under there whilst its in gear runnin.
We can only guess on a NG without actually hearing it. |
