For about a week or two I've had this low whine that I can hear when I start it up and when I'm driving anywhere below 2k RPM. I've looked under the hood while it's running, and I can only guess that it's the alternator. I did have my timing belt/water pump done in October, and I've heard they tend to whine, so could it just be that?

Mine whistles a little too, but I know it's because of the intake. The reason is that the box that inhibits the sound of the air rushing through the filter isn't there anymore.
