Weird squeaky fluttering noise when driving?
Hey guys, I have a 2002 C5 Corvette manual coupe with 53k miles that I bought recently. I just started the car to move it onto the road and I noticed this fluttering / squeaking type of noise that you can hear in the video, I was wondering if anybody had any ideas as to what that noise could be? I also hear a whistling noise that is VERY apparent when driving under any condition really, and it gets louder the more I lay on the throttle, and I was wondering if there are any ideas there. The car has a dual cone cold air intake but idk if that would do anything. One final noise I hear is a grinding noise when turning all the way to the right or left, but I believe that is because I need to change my rear diff fluid. Please help, thanks!

Make a video and post it on youtube.
