I get a squeak coming from the rear of the car during hard shifts to 2nd gear. Anyone else have this problem? It might just be something rubbing, but it bugs me everytime I accelerate hard.

Is it really a squeak or is it the rear tires chirping?

Mine does this only when I shift from 3rd to 4th under heavy acceleration. I think it may be the Diff.

i know the difference between a chirp and a squeak. it's a squeak. besides, it's hard to break A032R's loose

I've noticed on my 01' the same little squeak on my hard 2-3 shifts and on hard 3-4 shifts. I've also noticed that it happens a lot more on my friends 00'.

Guess I am allways too engrossed in the wail of the exaust to notice. I will listen for squeaks from now on.

This sound is likely the belt slipping in the engine bay rather than from the rear.. It wouldn't be the differential squeeking...

You can get upgraded belts which don't slip, but it's no big deal...

I do this all the time cause I shift hard as hell (probably why my ACT clutch feels worse than stock right now...)
