Squeaking when turning?
OK, I park my SVX outside on the curb, so i guess its a cold hard start up when i drive it.
The problem: i purchased my SVX and had to replaced the axles and CV joints (fronts). Now, it starts to squeak again, could this be the CV joints again? this mainly happens in the morning when i need to turn all the way to one side and seems to always happen when i am in reverse (in the morning of after school) what can i do? Thanks |

Sounds like your wheel is rubbing on something.

ok, now it doesn't not matter whether i am turning or not, its just on startup that it will make this freakish squeaking sound
i checked the levels for engine and power steering oil and they were fine. It just makes this horrible sound on startup that seems to be coming from the belts on the engine, even though i had them replaced less than 500 miles ago Any new ideas? |

doesn't matter with belts if you burned a section by not tightening it correctly then it will catch that spot and make it bigger until it does it all the time. eaisiest fix new belts =30ish dollars and an hour of you time

Sounds like maybe a bad bearing (idler/alternator)
Or else the power steering pump is dying. (or o-ring maybe)
