Squeak Under acceleration
I did some searching and nothing matched what im experiencing so im hoping someone can help.
G37X 2010 with 17k miles on it and bc coil overs
it started off last fall and wasnt to bad but it has become progressively worse.
when accelerating from a stop or lower speed cornering i get a loud defined squeak verging on a screech from what sounds like the rear drivers side (it could be passenger but im obviously on the drivers side more)
i dont know why but i think its the differential or transfer case but i havent had anyone look at it and have no basis for my opinion.
i did take it to a track day once last year and had just about every warning light on including the AWD which went off shortly after it was on.
I drive quite aggressively around town and tend to beat on it more then most care to admit.
has anyone heard a similar noise? ill see if i cant get a video or sound clip to share.
please let me know what you think.

Check your brake pads. There is a wear indicator when they get low. You admit to driving it hard, which leads me to believe you brake hard. That would be my first guess. Also, BC coilovers are known to make noise. It could be something to do with your suspension.

just for archival purposes,
figured it out, the bracket at the end of my exhaust was cutting into my driveshaft heatshield. the sound got worse the more it broke through.
i either drop the exhaust and remove the heat shield, or let it sound a bit bad for another bit while it clears a hole which i can help widen
