This happens rather often and ive examined the bushings, brakes, torsion beam and the rest of it and i have no clue.

your engine just doesn't have oil at that moment. The sound goes away when the oil pump puts more oil on everything.
Rev your engine to 7k to make it go away faster

I changed my serpentine belt while it was snowing, then when I drove home the ABS, BRAKE, and traction control lights came on, and when I stopped the car the cd player tried to eject 3 times for no reason. electricity and water don't mix i guess.

The "rim" is called a wheel, the tire is a tire, together they make a tire & wheel because they're two separate parts lmao

Ants live in my car but only when I park at a specific spot at work.

Once I kill them all off they never come back until I park at that spot.

Funny thing is there are no ants on the ground around there.

You forgot the air in the tires, the valve, the valve cap, the lug nuts.. Jesus man, if you're going to describe a tire wheel air lug nut valve assembly do it right.

On this board I'm never really sure if someone is deliberately or unknowingly being stupid.
Start the car and wait 30sec before you start driving, that'll get the oil circulating inside the engine with the least possible amount of wear.

That's actually likely because the power adapter for the fm transmitter is not properly earthed/does not have an adequate fuse. I had the same issue with my car and aux input when I used a cheap car adapter to charge my phone, and when i had the phone plugged in and charging + aux cable in phone any stepping on gas caused the obnoxious squealing. My father (an electrician) told me that was the issue (the poor earthing/fuse within the adapter) and low and behold when I used a proper adapter never had the issue anymore.

Same. Drive not that often, but when I do - rev the shit out of it. Maintenance? Naaah, check oil once in a while. Some issues here and there and my power steering mechanism broke resulting in pricey ass repair.

but he's right, kys and stream it on twitch you autistic fuckwad

when you torque your wheels you need to drive a few klicks or miles like 50 or 100 and retorque them to the same spec once they're set all snug on the wheel hub, THEN you can tougay

the loud ass grindy mechanical droning noise is actually just your abs system trying to counter your STUPID ASS FOOT on the brake pedal because you're not supposed to brake on black ice otherwise you'd be fucked once you get grip again on one of the wheels, awd prolly thought fuck this driver i'm out.

nah really your car is fine, now you know what ABS sounds and feels like, use it to drive safer and let it do its job.
