Squeaking when I accelerate coming from the front.

[James Thomas Riter Jr.]

This one has been driving me nuts over the past month, when I am moving (above 20mph or so) and I press on the gas I hear a squeaking that sounds like it's coming from the front.

 

The squeaking seems to be louder with higher RPM's but will stop when I let off of the gas. If I am just going down the road at 60mph and only giving it light gas, I do not hear the noise at all.

 

If I sit there with my truck in neutral , and rev the engine I do not hear a noise at all. This only happens when moving.

 

I made a video of the squeaking, that I will add to this. When I was making the video, I was able to get my truck to make the same noise while in neutral.

 

At first I thought it was the u-joints on the drive shaft so I changed them but that did not help at all. I have also change all the belts , and just changed the a/c compressor.

 

Any idea on what this can be?

I know this is a very old post. But I'm having the same issue. Did you get it resolved?

I really did not hear the squeak, however there was a tsb for the A/C belt and tensioner, back in the day.  Dayco has both parts available.
