Gearbox/diff squeak, poor engine braking

[Lafiro]

I have the exact same problem as you described. Try getting next to a wall with the car in reverse or drive, right after a drive, and I hear it all the time. Its an annoying sqeak that does not appear to be originating from the accessory belt either.

The major difference between you and me, you are manual, I have the automatic. But the sounds and every detail of what you said I am experiencing.

So if you find a fix for this please let me know as my dealership just said the old saying "we couldnt reproduce it".

Aaah well that would seemingly elimiminate the GB and throwout bearing for sure then. Good to know I'm not the only one, bad because we still don't know what it is!

How long has yours been doing it? Hopefully it's not a potentially fatal problem and I can live with it til I get my Z back on the road.
