jack up each wheel and turn them see if noise is comeing from wheel moveing or could be in drive train or worn out brakes squelers going off

1 problem at a time

1st-- squeaks-- when the breaks where replaced where the anti-radile clips put back in, if so dose squeak rear or front

if rear check spring kits

2nd-- jerks-- this could be drive train question dose ur engine seem to rev at all wen this is happening


try this

goto an area where this is safe

driving at normal speeds put the shifter in neutral (this will NOT hurt it if you follow wat i say)
now apply the brakes dose it **** if so problem is in breaks is not get ur trans looked at
''''''''''DO NOT PUT BACK IN GGEAR UNTILL U HAVE CAME TO A COMPLEAT STOP'''''''
good luck

IF SUBFRAME BENT ALL DRIVE TRAIN AND FRONT SUSPENSION COMPONENTS GOING TO BE KNOCKED OUT OF LINE.

ther are no lubriction points on the driveshaft,if you rev the engine does the noise get louder or go away?try power braking the car ,make sure e-brake works properly if so apply it ,place the car in drive,place your left foot on the brake ,right on the accelerator,rev to 2000rpm for no more than 10 sec, this is like puttting a load on the drive train,this may unmask your noise,it appears this may be some sort of exhaust rattle since nothing is moving undereath car

well the belt could be loose or the compressor may be seized.....or the belt may be old and squealing.

shot in the dark but you may want to check your shocks

Hey there rusty,

There's some good news here. As a front wheel drive vehicle, there is no rear differential.

What you are hearing could be either one of the wheel bearings or brakes.
Squeaking could be bearings
Grinding could be brakes
Still needs to be addressed by a trained mechanic, but MUCH less expensive.

If you can get me more on the symptoms, we might be able to localize the problem better.

Hope this helps
Mike
