There is a noise coming from my truck when I accelerate and turn left from a complete stop. This noise is a high pitched sound and quickly goes away. Is this something to be worried about?

Hello, it sounds like your problems could be one of two things, either the engine drive belt is loose causing the noise or the engine mount has failed on the left side allowing the engine to "lift" causing the engines moving parts to contact, creating the noise you have described. Inspect and get back to us please. Thanks for using 2Carpros. Com
