rob_bower Posted December 4, 2009 Posted December 4, 2009 started today on my way to work. It speeds up and slows down with the speed of the engine. It sounds as if its coming from the alternator. Anyone had anything like this before? Or is it time door a new one! Rob Quote

Robto single it out try reving the car from inside the engine bay with the throttle cable if you can still here it as you rev the car it could be that the alternator bearings are gone and its time for a new oneif not more investigation required Quote
rob_bower Posted December 4, 2009 Author Posted December 4, 2009 im 99% sure its the alternator still does it when reving with just the cable and in or out of gear!! going to whip the belt of later just to isolate it to confirm its the alternator!! Quote
