    I’ve had this awful chirping sound when I’m accelerating from at least 4mph - 40mph. I have no idea what it is, I’ve seen a lot of people say brakes or u joints. I had my brakes inspected and they didn’t see anything and my ujoints look fine, no rust, they’re enclosed so I don’t have to grease them. If anyone could help that’d be amazing, cause it’s driving me insane.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Belt tensioner or idlers, maybe.

    It doesn’t sound like it’s coming from the engine

    Wheel bearing time, maybe.

    Might be the serpentine. Put some water on it and if it goes away that's it.

    It’s not in the engine, been driving with the windows down trying to hear it more, I think it might be in the rear

    Sounds like a rock between the brake rotor and dust shield.

    The wheel that powers the driveshaft needs a drop of oil... the mouse will be happier too it won't have to work so hard.

    If anyone’s in LA don’t go to Glendale Toyota, they told me my brakes were at 80%, bullshit. And they were glazed. Did a lap around the block and haven’t heard anything, when I drive a little longer we’ll see if it comes back.

    Bad news, it wasn’t fixed. At least I didn’t waste money cause I needed to change the pads anyway.
