Sorry if this has been mentioned before:
I really think the tank engine noises need to be seriously beefed-up! To me they sound too much like a humming/mild droning sound. The Panther/Tiger in particular sound alot like an automatic Range Rover to me, as does the T34 - with it's diesel engine and unclad steel tracks the T34 was one of the noisiest tanks ever to roll into battle!
Imo beefing-up the engine sounds and adding some clattering along with the squeaking would add bucketloads of realism to the tanks and atmosphere to the game. Some samples:
