Lets play what's this noise...
Thursday, April 16, 2009 5:16 PM
So yesterday I was cruisin around and my car started to make a very angry noise.. not to loud but loud enough.. Looking at it I thought it was my alternator and a bearing went or something along those lines. The longer I drove the louder it got...

So now I don't even wanna drive my car.. When I give'r gas she gets louder then calms down a bit.. then gets a little louder.. Intermittently gets louder here and there too..

When I tested the battery at idle she sits at 12.8 and when I start the car it sits at 14.8 which is normal.. I'm really hoping it's not the engine.. Any ideas?

/me waits for a sound clip

A/C compressor? Does it go away or get worse with the A/C turned on?
