hi! everybody...
if someone has read my post before about my alternator problem.... i think that was a wrong diagnosis service from my dealer....
i had squeaking sound around the engine belt section... so first... i sent my car to a auto shop to check where the problem might come from... the technian told me either my belt was too tight or the pulley on the engine need to be replaced ... so he recommended to send my car back to dealer to replace since i still have warranty..
so , i sent it back to dealer.. after a diagnosis.. they concluded the problem was my alternator had short circuit.. and need to be replaced that one...
so, i waited the part for 5 days.. and then they changed....
but the sound is still there... and i believe the old alternator was no problem before too.. because from myself investigation... the sound came out from either alternator or just a pulley right above the alternator... now the alternator is a new one... but the sound was still there ...
interesting thing is that if i speed up the rpm... the sound just gone ... so is that a pulley problem ??
sigh..... waste time.....
