I used to only hear for a little bit after I started my car, but it sat for a month and now I always hear it. It sounds like a belt but its under me when Im sitting in the drivers seat. My change oil light just came on today. Could that be something to do with it? Thanks!

Make sure your oil level is full I doubt it's anything to do with your oil change.So you think the noise is under your car?Your going to have to go look under your car for the noise then.

okay thanks. Well now when I start to go my rpm shots to the 5 until I get to 10 mph then again till 30 mph then it's fine. Could they be related? Should I be worried. My mechanic is out of town and I'm freakin, Thanks again!!!

I have no idea what the noise is so i can't say one way or the other if it is something you should be worried about.Noise's are hard enough to find in person let alone over the internet.I guess the best bet for you is to take it in and have it looked and see what is wrong.Sorry i couldn't have helped you more.
