Question Car Making redline noise =[ help???

I'm having problem with my 2nd gen fc, when ever i make the slightest turn to the right my car makes the redline noise and it wont stop sometimes for up to five minutes. I wanted to know if anyone knew what the freaking problem is, and how or what i can do to fix it? If anyone can help me out please let me know.

i had a similar problem when i would take turns...my oil level was well below what it should have been...check your levels and get some oil ASAP!

+1 for check oil level...
mine was low, oil light even came on, and the buzzer went off

filled it up QUICK... i don't see any great loss of oil, but i do suppose I should check in more often... don't want a broken motor

That buzzer sounds for redline, coolant and oil levels. Check both immed. and don't drive the car until you get it squared away. There could be air in the coolant system as well, make sure you fill the coolant at the filler neck (not the top of the rad) with the bleed screw cracked open.

Thanx you guys. I changed both the oil and the coolant and the noise has stoped.
