Need more information. Is it continuous regardless of whether the engine is cold or warmed up? If not, when does it happen?

Does it matter if your clutch is in or out?
My throwout bearing has gone from a buzz to a loose-belt like chirp I think the bearing is starting to go, I would change it out myself but really don't have the time would this be under warrenty you think? |
It's either a canary stuck in your intake, or maybe a loose accessory belt.

More seriously, is it like a whistle noise? FS |
very funny mug! haha u know i wasnt sayin that to start anything, just stating how fast the 8 is but anyway... yaa its like a whistling noise, and i dont know if its the belt or if its the engine/transmission.... all i know is it starts chirping when the car is fully warmed up, and its just regular driving on the Hwy or local streets.... I need to get this fixed, im takin it to the dealer thursday, so if anyone can help me before then, id appreciate it..

The whistle noise is normal. I believe it is the 5th and 6th actuator ports opening/closing (to let extra air in, thus the whistle noise).

once again does it matter if you clutch is in or out?:spank:
