My car suddenly started having some really loud growling + squeaking/scratching noise, seems to be from the engine(but could be transmission?)
Only noticeable when pushing throttle slowly like just moving after starting, or low rpm and <60kmh. And only in D, never in N.

SC near setapak won't take in during saturdays(service only they say), and they're full tomorrow.
My schedule is packed so no time to send it in myself any other time, now I'm worry myself to death lol

Need some word of comfort from you guys.

Sounds like a loose timing belt. What year is your car?

2014

Could be a loose air-con belt. Off the air-con and see if the sound disappears.

That's what I thought as well, but then I dismissed it because couldn't understand how that would relate to the noise. confused.gif
Tried turning the air-con off and so far the sound disappears ohmy.gif

Of course could just be coincidence, so I'll play around again with the air-con tomorrow before sending it to service on Wednesday.
Thanks.
