could be as simple as serpantine belt slipping in that case it sshould sound like a very short 1/4-1/2 of a second "chirp"

or may be you are barking the tires, what w/ all the mad power of SE and ATX

maybe the belt is slipping, just like you described, a 1/2 second chirp... why would it slip "RIGHT" when it is changing gears? man i guess i really need to get the tensioner changed and idler maybe... do i need the serp tensioner, and serp idler pulley?

as a matter of fact it's not that big a deal, imo. may be the belt needs to be changed, but that's probably it...

well i dont know. i just changed the belt like a month ago... it still slips a little like when the engine is idling and im turning, like into a parking spot... so im thinking i need a new tensioner, i heard your supposed to change it around 60k anyways..?

under hard acceleration my tour makes a sound as well. mine sounds more like a high pitched scraping sound. it only lasts about a second though. is that what yall are talking about?
