    I have a little problem with my 2001 Concorde which currently has 48,000
    miles. There seems to be an odd high pitched creaking noise near the inside
    of the left front wheel, and I can't figure out what's been causing it.



    This noise occurs only when starting the vehicle in cool weather; after the
    car warms up (10-15 minutes of driving) it is gone. Furthermore, this noise
    is only there when the gear is in park or reverse, it is very quiet in
    neutral or drive! Another odd thing, it only occurs when the RPM is between
    900-1500.



    Any thoughts on this? Thanks in advance.

    I don't think so. The noise is coming from the bottom rear left of the
    engin. Near the inside of the left front wheel as stated before.

    If you turn the steering wheel back and forth, does the noise change pitch or
    volume?
