3000gt in need

[3000gtlover]

ok, i wanted 2 ride my 4-wheeler, so my mom backed out the 3000gt, when it started up, it made a raddling noise, like it was gonna cut off or something, it makes a sqeaky sound when u drive it too................................do u know whats wrong???


help.............

You're going to need to provide more detail... the sqeak could be as easy as a bit of moisture on the belt...
Where is the rattling noise? Is it Manual or Auto? Did the rattle go away?

was there any "thump" ...more details!!!

[3000gtlover]

well sorta, sorta not.......seemed like the engine was going out, like that car was about 2 shut off

[3000gtlover]

the engine was screaching, i mean its just fine on the road, its when u start it up........ok heres the thing, my dad said it wasnt riding smooth, he said it needed a front-end alignment......when the car breaks, thats when it sqeakes so.........

[3000gtlover]

The squeaks could be coming from the brakes. Did your dad change the pads and rotors himself? If so did he use anti-squeak stuff like disc break quiet by cbc, or pads that already had it in the compound? If some pos shop changed them then it is a good guess that you need to check the pads and rotors and see if they need to be changed. If so go out and buy good brakes and rotors dont be cheap. Some bendex brakes already have an anti-squeak gel in the compound. If not you can buy some for about $3.

I thought u said it came from the engine though...maybe it was from under the engine??..The breaks wont just screech outa no where. Unless when your pressing them. And trust me..brakes wont make your car want to die out.
