Two weeks ago I noticed my car made a weird squeaking sound when I started to take out in 1st. A couple of days later it did it when I went to 2nd also. Now it does it when I start the car, engage 1st or 2nd gear, stay in gear and hit the gas again, or anytime the engine is first under load.

Anyone have an idea why its doing this?

Stock mounts and it does it every day everytime. It's like clockwork.

Definitely from the engine. It happens when the engine is put under load. No matter how much or little throttle. It sounds like a metal squeak.
I checked my intake and strut bar and they are both tight.

Not yet. I will do that today. I had a belt squeaking a couple of months ago, this sounds different.

The weird thing is that I've been taking it easy lately. That would suck that I finally break something when I'm being good.

I had a rattling a while back that turned out to be the top mount bolt being loose. That would be my guess, check all the bolts for the motor mounts.
