For close to 6 months I drove around with a squeak that sounded like a bird chirping coming from my dashboard windshield area. I tried listening everywhere while driving and could never pinpoint the squeak that was driving me crazy. For whatever reason, I adjusted the rubber bumper stops for the hood and the chirp went away. I had to post this just in case there were others with the annoying squeak.

Rubber bump stops for the hoo...wha??? Not sure I understand what you're referring to. Can you post a pic for the uninformed (like me!)?

When you lift up your hood there are rubber bump stops at the corners of the hood that are adjustable by spinning them counter/clockwise depending if you need them extended or decreased. By extended mine, the rubber bumps "hold" the hood in place not allowing the hood to slightly move when hitting a bump thus eliminating the chirp sound I was hearing in the interior of my truck. Hope this explains a little better.

I have a crappy chirp coming from the rear passenger brakes. The chirp changes/goes away when I apply the brakes but it is annoying when driving. I think I an just going to have to get new rotors and maybe the emergency brake kit to resolve it from what I have been researching.
