I hear an odd squeal near driver window/lock control when turn off engine. Of course, it never happens at dealer. ---

So you have a Honda Fit? That’s all you are going to tell us about this car? If it is still under warranty, it is the dealer’s problem to fix it. ---

Unfortunately, warranty ended last year. Module was replaced, but didn’t “do the trick.” ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/2X/6/602d295699c664ee41f5e74eb1e2b9d202636f1e.png) > ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/3X/2/5/25fd39a8152ee25b3a28c14d98a413eac98961b0.jpeg "Mustangman") | [Mustangman](https://community.cartalk.com/u/mustangman) > June 6 | > > - | - | So you have a Honda Fit?

An indy mechanic will charge FAR less, and–hopefully–will be more diligent about diagnosing the problem. Ask friends, neighbors, relatives, and coworkers for recommendations regarding a good mechanic’s shop. Just be sure to **ignore** any suggestions that you go to any of the following: Midas, Meineke, Monro, Sears, Pep Boys, Firestone, or… God forbid… AAMCO. ---

Thankas for the list of don’t. It’s hard to break the dealewr psych, but I did finally get a neigoborhood garage to change oil. Funny, that’s one was dealer lures you in, with $35-40 specials for the only kind of oil change it does (full synthetic). Neighborhood did charge about 50% more for full synthetic. But then I think he has to stock numerous weights, not just the Honda weight. Anyway, will follow your thinking. Squeal-- v annoying. ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/2X/6/602d295699c664ee41f5e74eb1e2b9d202636f1e.png) > ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/3X/5/8/58b25c676caa6dd1b4d20ede68a1432089717836.jpeg "VDCdriver") | [VDCdriver](https://community.cartalk.com/u/vdcdriver) > June 6 | > > - | - | Then there is no reason to continue to go to the dealership.

If the window and door controls are working properly, I suggest you live with it and drive on. Does it do it if you shut off with the window partly open? ---
