Re: Car makes whining sound..

Use either an old piece of hose or broom stick and stick one end on your ear and the other end on various parts of the engine (alternator, water pump, pully, etc). The length needs to be 2 to 3 feet long. It is an old trick and will really help to pin down where the sound is coming from. Just don't put it on any moving parts!!!
