chirp..chirp
What would make a chirp, chirp, chirp that increases with speed of truck?
Pretty sure I don't have a nest of chicks! Lol

Re: chirp..chirp
I had a speedometer cable cause that before... Sometimes it chirped, sometimes it screeched. Only did it when the weather was cold.

Re: chirp..chirp
It seems to be coming from the front, and possible more prominent on the driver side. ... could be speed cable,mine does the ten MPH jump.

Re: chirp..chirp
Increases with the speed, or the RPM? Just thought I'd ask cause if its RPM then it could be a belt.

Re: chirp..chirp
Does it sound like an angry squirrel?
My truck made the same sound; it's the speedometer cable. I lubed my cable up, and I no longer have the chirruping.
