OK, so I'm hearing this weird squeaking noise when leaving out of first and low speeds around 5 to 10 mph. It seems to be coming from under the car, but I'm not sure. I've replaced the belt, belt tensioner, alternator, clutch and throwout bearing. After the clutch replacement the noise seems to have gotten worse. I've got plenty of brake pad so that can't be the issue.

Here's the weird thing, yesterday and today have been colder than a mofo and I haven't heard the noise. I hear it when it's warm outside. Strange.

Please, anyone with suggestions on what to check next would be great.

It will take some more specific diagnostics to narrow it down since t could be anything.
If it's only speed related, chances are it's not a belt or accessory (which are RPM related, and would happen while the car is stationary).

Does it change if you depress the clutch pedal?

Axle or wheel bearings. I just did the axle bearings on my F150 and had similar symptoms. The reason you can't hear it at higher speeds is that the engine / road noise overpowers the squealing of the bearings.

ive heard that your u-joints on your drive shaft can make noises like that... usually under 10 miles per hour... something to look into... maybe time for a new aluminum drive shaft!!!
