A Few Issues
Hello all,
My car recently hit 86,000 miles and since then it seems like one new noise after another is popping up
The first thing is occasionally at around the 800-900 rpm mark i hear a rattling sound which i am assuming is a loose exhaust somewhere because it sounds like i have an exhaust leak right now for sure. I plan on getting this looked into sometime in the near future, just haven't had the chance to get around to it lately.
Then maybe a week ago once my car gets hot and has been running a bit i start to hear what sounds like belt squeak, anyone have any other ideas what it could be? I was just unsure why it would only do it when it gets hot.
Other than that I think it's just time for some basic fixes, such as new shocks and struts (suspension is a bit squeeky sometimes) and new brakes most likely as they have just recently started squeaking as well...I guess when it rains it pours.

When you say it gets hot then squeaks do you mean normal op temp and it squeaks or do you mean it overheats and then does it? If its the 2nd then maybe some coolant is sprayed out and getting on the belt or something.

It could be this, but listening to some mustangs that have this issue on youtube mine sounds nothing like the extreme level of noise they are having, but it could be mine just started to go bad. If this is the case, is this an easy DIY kind of fix or best to let a shop handle it?
