Question High-pitched nails on a chalk board sound

when i'm going down the road at low rpms, i hear a high screeching sound. i know it's not the brakes, but i just got my car back yesterday with the new clutch. i doubt it's a belt because it would do it when the car is idling or revving. it starts happening when i start then, after i accelerate from each shift. if anyone would know what this noise is, please tell me.

The only thing that comes to my mind is the belt. Better get it taken care of (whatever it is).

Does it sound mechanical or electronic?

mechanical, but there's no check engine light. wouldn't it come on if it was a belt? is this covered under warranty?
like i said, i just had transmission work, so i'll take it back there and let them see it first. the chrysler dealer here is horrible, and they pretty much despise my car, so they're a last resort.

better description of the sound: like a bunch of falling coins.

Check your pocket for holes.

I hear a high-pitched sound in my car but it's definitely electronic. Haven't figured out what it is yet.
