96 Mustang V-6 stick shift loud screeching noise when you start it then it comes and goes as you drive?

Usually that noise is caused by a slipping serpentine belt. When you first start, the alternator is creating a lot of extra electrical power to recharge the battery. During that time the alternator is more difficult to turn and if the belt is even slightly loose or the tensioner is marginal, it will make that terrible noise.


When should the brakes be changed on a 2004 Toyota Highlander?

There is no 'set' answer for this question. Be aware that there are built-in warning devices on the brakes. When the pads are low you will begin hear a screeching sound whenever you apply the brakes. When you start hearing that sound consistently - it is time.


88 Chevy K1500 Truck What would cause a high pitch screeching sound under hood it is not the serpentine belt but seems to be coming from an internal pump or bearing?

You need to remove the serpentine belt, And then start engine and see if the noise goes away with the belt off. That will eliminate all the things that the belt runs. If your noise is still there with the belt off, then ask your question again saying that you have removed the belt and you have a high pitch screeching sound. Then wi'll see what we can do for you.
