Starting today mid drive home i noticed that when i pressed on the peddle about 15-20% of the way it made a grinding noise of sorts, at least i cant really describe it. Didnt really sound like grinding though, just kind of a (eeeeeeeeee) im not sure how to descrbe it. Anyways... anyone know what this could be?

EDIT: one more thing, it only happened at the 15-20% mark, before and after that the noise went away.

Thats mt friend sounds like the classic alternator belt squeel
assuming your pressing the gas pedal.

You have a loose
belt check tightness and give the belt a shot of belt dressing ...
Here WD-40 will work too. if you dont have belt dressing.

ahhhh classic Vaughan, always wanting more information!

He is clearly talking about the flux capacitor pedal.
Obviously the only real solution is to inform him that it is never supposed to only be depressed that small amount.
