My Sierra has just started making a squeaking noise when ever I take my foot off the accelerator. I push the accelerator and the Noise goes away. It doesn't make the noise at idle either. Does anyone know what it could be? Skelly

is it related to the wheel speed, or just random??
if its related to wheel speed, could be worn brakes or something in the brakes, mayyybe wheel bearings.
if its random, could be worn bushes in the leaves, or the leaves themselves squeaking.
???

Worn or broken engine/gearbox/transfer mounts is a possibility, too. A loose exhaust could do it, too.
Try to get a taping of the noise for people with good ears to help you.

It's going to be hard to record a noise because It only happens when driving. The noise sounds Similar to when you run on a indoor basket ball Court and it makes that squeking noise when you Are wearing joggers

Give us an idea of where the noise is coming from, front, middle or rear. So far it could be anything

Another one to check if it squeeks when driving only is the speddo cable. My sierra had an annoying as hell squeek when driving and it was the cable. $10 for one off ebay and its is a 10 minute fix.
