Default Squeaky throttle body.

Getting a rapid squeak from my throttle body at idle, and I assume when driving. When I hold the throttle body with my hand, the noise stops. I think it's these rubber nubs it sits on, but not certain. Any way to stop it?

I think you'd have to post up a video or sound clip for anyone to be able to make a call on what you could do. If you apply pressure there and the noise stops, then you can probably try re-positioning it, tightening bolts, or replacing with a junk yard one. etc.
