This has been happening a while now, when i start up the car in the morning and move off my drive, something squeeks when accelerating and braking. Ive checked the exhaust and ive also check the heat sheild to see if they squeek.
Its driving me crazy now, does anyone have any idea's on how to fix this problem.
Thanks

Definatley a squeek. When you in the car and tap the accelerator and there is a judder, definatley a squeek. When Its warm it doesnt do it.

Sarcy answer: It's a pug.
Serious answer: Is it just the pedal!?

Mine does this, it's a bit annoying, might change it soon. Someone told me to put talc on the belt to stop the squeaking, dunno if that would help though?
