Please help!!! I'm dying to get rid of this problem!! My crv does this squeaking noise when the motor is cold. Usually stops once it warms up but sometimes it doesnt and as you can see it continues on once the car is off. It also faintly makes the noise when i turn left. Any help is appreciated!!


heres a video of the problem:

 

Almost sounds like a really nasty vaccum leak

 

yeah i agree it sound like the break booster is leaking because it still makes the sound when you turn the engine off. the break booster is the only thing i can think of that will hold the vacuum that long. sound wierd tho, it shouldnt take a mechanic more than 5 min with a stethiscope to figure it out for sure.

 

Agreed - definitely sounds like a vacuum leak at the brake booster. You can try putting a wet rag all around the vacuum hoses going to the brake booster and see if sound changes. That sounds like a pretty big leak and you should be able to pinpoint it fairly easily.

Next question - where are you? Snow on the ground in August??
