squeak squeak squeak

Post by Snowolf2 »

Every now and then my car starts squeaking and I don't really know why. It happens when I give it gas after being idle. It doesn't always happen, and pretty much only occurs at night. I just got all new belts and water pump a month ago. Anyone else have this problem?

it could be coming from a loose or over tighten serpentine belt, start there. does it squeak when you turn your a/c on at idle?

Its typically only when I hit the gas, but I think it has once or twice sqeaked for just a second after I hit the Def. button while idling.

There is also something wrong the A/C unit I think because if I leave the "Off" button pushed down, something starts clicking 30sec later. Its fine if I just leave no buttons pushed in.
