Noise diagnosing?

Post by rybotix »

I have a 2001 XC70 with 160k, and lately I have been hearing a couple new noises. The first being a squeeking or chirping sound coming from the glove box area whenever I press the brake pedal down or turn corners at lower speeds.

The second is the the engine seems to "chug" at lower speeds, or in drive but vreeping along in traffic when warmed up.

I am a noob, so any help is appreciated.

Cheers

Yes, I have had it squeek from road vibration in the past, but this noise is not the glove box itself, but rather a chirp from behind the glove box. Is there a compressor here that the brakes could cause to change sounds? I have turned off the A/C but still hearing it. Anyone else?

Thanks!
