Default annoying squeeking sound!!

Hi

When drivin the car, every time you push the accelerator i hear a squeek from near the gearbox or underneath the car from somewhere. Its only when u press the accelerator its like a hinge needs oiling or something.

Any ideas at all??

And, the main feed to my cigarett lighter is dead? all the fuses are ok. ive connected it to another live to get it going but when i pushed the lighter in it blew the lights fuse, but when using a incar mobile charger it worls fine!

any help at all would be great thanks

The sound might be from a bad motor mount check your mounts.

The lighter elememt is probably bad if the lighter socket works with other things and blows with the lighter.
There is also fuses under the hood.Check them to for the lighter socket fuse.

Yes the motor mounts are engine mounts.
There is 2 mounts under the engine.
There is one on the right side of the car.I have seen the inner part of the mount come loose from the outer bracket before.
There is another one on the left side of the car that goes to the top of the transmission.
