2 things come to mind. Are you 100% sure you don't have an emergency brake or any other brake sticking, even partially? 2nd thing would be Catalytic converter may be partially plugged. That is assuming a tune-up, filters etc have been done .

you should keep all four tires on the ground !!!! LOL ! your rotors or brake pads are bad. do you feel it shake in the steering wheel ? Check these three items and im sure it will fix.......1) jack front car up and try to move front tires in all directions, does it feel loose at all? if yes check tie rod ends, upper and lower ball joints. 2) check brake pads for wear, heat from pads warp the rotors and cause the break pedal and steering to shake or vibrate. 3) If nothing can be found wrong with the tie rods or ball joints i recommend changing the rotors and brake pads, a pretty cheap fix.

The high pitch sound may come from the brake pads as metal parts hit the disc to signal the owner that it needs change. The metal parts gets exposed when the pads have worn out. The brake also has a hub to cover the disc. See if the metal plate is hitting it but this issue would appear when the wheels are in motion. Check if it is the belts, have the tension checked out. Other than that the bearings are the other items on your wheel that could cause a high pitched sound when you car is in motion.

Had same problem with my 05 neon....crank sensor is not working properly.....go to parts store, you can get one with lifetime warranty for bout $20-$30....driver side of block, just remove battery, it is not hard to remove or install....had to change mine a couple times then haven't had any probs for couple years now....good luck..

You know going to the dealer for these parts is insane since they want to charge close to $700 for the 4 mounts (3 motor and 1 transmission) You can get all 4 mounts for a 2003-2005 dodge neon 2.0L auto trans for $98 with free shipping and life time warranty.

Your oil pressure sensor in located on the back of the block, about in the center. Sometimes it is covered with a metal cover. It will be a green 2 wire connector plug, with a red tab that goes through the connector to help retain it so it doesnt fall off. You have to push the red tab back through the connector just enough to squeeze the retainer down to remove the connector from the switch. Hope this helps.

right lower engine

Your shifter may not be completely in park; or you could be turning the key too far back toward yourself and into the accessory position. It could be something more involved, but these are a couple easy things to check first. Hope it helps you!
