I played around with it a little, and it happens just as it engages.
I can duplicate it by driving in fifth, pushing in the clutch just enough
to disengage the engin, giving it some gas, and slowly releasing the
clutch. The squealing sound stops when the engine is fully engaged.
It also happens all the time in first. If I'm taking off fast from a
stop, I'll have the clutch in, rev up the engine, and when the light
changes, I release the clutch as fast as possible without stalling the
engine. In this situation, I get the squealing sound as the clutch
engages the engine.
I know what you're thinking.... NO, its not the tires! ;) I don't
usually give it quite that much gas. :)
