youre gonna have to retype that man. at zero rpm your car isnt running, so that doesnt really make sense. post a better description of issue

I think I had that same issue. I honestly dont think its anything serious at all. Possibly motor mounts

I think he means, he revvs the engine, and on the downrevv, as it reaches 0, there is a squeek

if that is what you mean, it may be time for new belts

After i read this it didnt make sense to me either lol. On the downrev when it reaches idle there is a squeak or some noise like a squeak/whistle. Once it warms up it runs a lil rough like it wants to shut off.

squeaks could be a bad/tight belt. does it only happen in park/neautral, or when in gear as well? roughness could be dirty spark plugs.
any engine codes? that would help to know. if the light is on, figure out what they are.
