    Help! Anyone know what is making this squeaking noise?

    The audio in this video is start up and taking off in first gear (manual transmission)

    Sounds like the classic dry/stiff u-joint to me.

    Thanks! I’ll try greasing it and see if that helps at least for now

    It may but typically when I see them like that it's far too late for grease to do any good, worth a shot though.

    Yeah that makes sense, dang. Going on a few thousand mile road trip on Friday and the damn noise just started today. I’ll see if my mechanic can get parts and replace it tomorrow, if not grease it and send it I suppose
