Ok, so when I'm driving, usually in first or reverse, I hear this chirping noise coming from the drivetrain part of the car when I press the gas. Im pretty sure its not the clutch or the trans. It sounds more like the u joint or axles? Im not sure. Any ideas guys?

I would jack the car up, support on jackstands. For your safety. Wiggle the drive shaft around and see if you see any unusual movement. Now, if the cups are dry, you can still chirp and may not move.

You can always change the joints.

Good Luck
