i have been getting a noise lately...
let me explaine: it starts as soon as i turn the car on. sometimes it will go for long, sometimes it disapeers as soon as i give it some gas, wile i'm driveing it will come on wile i turn the car (use power stearing, but it's not from the pump.) it's kinda like a squeeeling wine!!! could this be from the alternator getting wet? i have a system, and my light's and EL guages have always dimmed a lil bit, but lately it has been dimming deeper, particularly when the noise is on... could it just be the brushes on the altornator? can i just simply take it apart, clean it, lube it up, install new brushes, and then hapily go about my way??? have i succefully diagnosed the problem??? have any of u had similar problems??? i have done a search, but read nothing came close to what i am expierencing. thank you mandrek -------------------- |
