Hello, couple questions.
1. when turning, especially when turning all the way, and pressing on the gas, the car makes a chirping noise. The noise goes away when the wheels are aligned straight and foot is off the gas petal.

2. the front of the car, I'm guessing engine area, makes chirping noises too. some people are suggesting it is a timing belt issue. any suggestions? the brakes were just recently changed.

Thanks

check axle joints and brakes as well. spray water on belt fi noise disappears, replace belt and tensioner.
