mxlcpx asked:
I have a 98 honda accord hatchback. Whenever I switch gears, it makes this squealing sound. Especially when I accelerate and I am about to stop. It sounds like metal to metal. I thought it was the belt, but had it repair and it still makes the squealing sound? Any help?
Edit: I meant to say a 98 honda CIVIC hatch, not an accord! I was thinking of my other car!

Matt W asked:
Some cars, when they are shifting gears while accellerating, right as the car shifts gears it makes a “tssss” sound, like a valve releasing pressure. i was wondering what causes that sound and what effects that device has on the cars performance?

wiggum19826 asked:
It’s a 1997 Saturn, and it has been running well up until now (125k). The last few days, it makes a whistling/whining sound when I go from an idle to higher speeds, and also when I reduce to a lower speed. This sound usually occurs around 10 mph, never at speeds higher than 30, and rarely when idle. I know it does not have to do with the breaks. Is it engine or transmission? Please help, thanks.

my car makes this buzzing sound as i pull up to a stop, and i think it must be around the lower gears if not just 1st gear or 1st to 2nd.
it vibrates a bit also while it buzzes.

Also, i tried this while i was in my driveway, if i switch from park to drive or drive to reverse or to neutral or anything, while it’s switching it buzzes, and vibrates the car.
Any ideas???
please help!!
could it be a belt?

depreciation asked:
When I’m driving it feels like the gas isn’t getting into the car and it shakes and makes a stalling noise. Especially when I accelerate. The car is 8 years old and some pople have told me to get the transmission oil checked or to get a full tune up. But I don’t want to pay all that money for something thats might not fix the problem. I would really appreciate some input on this. Thanks. Oh, and the car is a mercury grand marqis, V8, and its automatic? ( I don’t have to change gears, just put it in drive).

I drive a 99 Mazada Millennia S. Every since I bottomed out going over a railroad crossing, my car has been making the aforementioned sound while accelerating until the automatic transmission changes gears, until I try to speed up again which is when it will return. I haven’t noticed that the preformance is any different than before but I only started driving it a few days before hand. I tried to add more oil and it didn’t seem to help. The engine is supercharged if that means anything. I’m sorry if I’m being vauge but I am a novice when it comes to cars.
On other thing that might be of note: This only occurs when my car is in drive. When it is in neutral or in park, when I rev the engine the sound does not occur. Also for those who have a gues to what might be wrong, how much might I be looking at for the repairs. Thanks to all on those who help.
