HELP! Weird noise from under car...
I have a weird noise coming from under the car. I can't pinpoint where it's coming from. Sounds like a squealing, like metal on metal. Not real loud but noticeable. It doesn't get any louder with engine speed. I can press the clutch at around 25 mph to let the car coast and the sound is the same. It seems to stay the same at any speed until I start to come to a complete stop. The noise stays the same when I make left and right turns. I dunno if this is a wheel bearing or what. Someone give me some advice on what, where to look at.

Clutch is only about 6mo. old Doesn't make a peep when the car is in neutral sitting still. When the car is still at idle and I go through the gears with the clutch in it doesn't make any noise. When I get out of 1st nothing. Only when the car is rolling, in or out of gear.

if its not the wheel bearings, and you have'nt done them, the car more than likely needs them anyways.
The ONLY FC I've seen with mint (noiseless) wheel bearing is mine.........after I changed them
But seriously, I would put on all 4 (unless they've been recently changed) and then drive the car and see if the noise is there....if it still is, then you'll be able to hear it more clearly since the howling wheelbearings you've become used to are now as quiet as mice
