Hey guys, my 03 z seems to chirp when I step on it from a stop. It sounds similar to chirping tires but I am not stepping on it that fast. It is a fast chirp that seems to come under the car not inside the car. The chirp does not happen If I gradually increase the speed. It is only when I give her a fast acceleration from 0-40mph.

I also notice the chirp occur much more frequently when driving in tiptronic.

I have a rear squeak from the suspension when I enter or exit my car. I dont know if the rear squeak can contribute to the chirping. Any ideas? I was thinking Sway Bar End Links. BTW, car has 104k miles so I expect to hear a lot of squeaking and rattling

It's not the tires losing grip right? This sound is often referred to as a "chirp" when it is a short sound.

Anyway, if its not your tires... could be the suspension if you already have a squeak there you are noticing. Or it could be some strange symptom of the rear axle. Look up "rear axle click" to learn more...

Other than those, it will be hard to track down, but good luck.
