I took my car to get a radiator flush and as soon as I went home the car started beeping or whining. I then listened to try to pin-point the location of the noise. It seemed to be coming from the thermostat area. So I replaced the thermostat, when I took it out the seal was craked so I thought I found the problem. Then all of a sudden it started to make the noise again. I got really pissed and tired so I took it to the dealer and have them check it out. But it turned out that no one knew what was wrong with it. One of them said it might be coming from a bad diode from the alternator. I didn't want to replace anything else until I got more input on the problem, so can anyone help me out? Thanks!

Hey I found out the problem it was the water pump. I got it replaced today and its fine now, so it might be your water pump too.
