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?
