Default My car kidna sounds like it "squeeks" when it runs

whats the deal with that? Is it a belt? Its got a minor ticking sound, but it may be the injectors? Stupid thing leaks oil too, im thinking camshaft position sensor

edit: reason im asking is because it doesnt quite sound like a belt, and its not rpm based either, it doesnt go away at higher rpms. So its not that "Squeel"

No, im not even gonna buy it until I start to have problems. Im sure itll last me some time anyways.

If its fairly normal I wont worry myself too much about it until it starts to sound different

neons make alot of odd noises...just just one of the things you have to learn to deal with when you own a cheap economy "throw away" car...

this may sound odd to some but to me some of those weird noises are comfortable, like when I hear the thermo open up, and that ticking we all hear
