I've had squeaky belts sound like that.

Take a look at yours to make sure it's not degrading, then try some belt lubricant as a temporary fix.

Pretty sure it's coming from the car.
Muffler bearings are shot. LOL
What is it with posts like these? Troll, or seriously asking?
Do people not know how to open the hood and listen?
Does the sound occur only when moving, only when engine is running, in the vacuum of deep space? How can anyone think a random squeak on a video can be properly diagnosed with anything other than a wild ass guess?

It only occurs when it's moving when I give it throttle it sounds like it's coming from the engine

Say what now? Run-on sentences are for kids.
So just to clarify, revving the engine in park does NOT cause it?
And it doesn't do it when you're moving but not revving the engine?
Or does it do it also while coasting and off the throttle? How about with the brakes applied and moving?

Take all your troubleshooting actions, add them up logically, and I bet you'll get it figured out.

Yes revving the engine does cause it, also while in motion throttle or no throttle you still hear it. Nothing wrong with the brakes

So only when moving (aka when not stationary), and pretty much always on or off the throttle. Why would you think it's engine related and not brake related?

If it was engine related it would do it constantly, not just while in motion, right?
If you only hear it while in motion, then it stands to reason it's something wheel well related like brakes or brake sensors, not engine.

Does it do it when you hit the brakes, not hit the brakes, only from a stop as you start to move, always when moving, etc?
