So a few days ago I noticed a new noise at idle under the hood. I thought it was my a/c compressor on its way out, but apparently, it was the alternator.
I guess the bearings are seizing up, as the alt/batt light started flickering, combined with squealing from the alt belt. I pulled it, and it is now very difficult to turn. It only has 105k miles on it, which seems low to me. Laters, Brian -- 1989 GLI Wolfsburg Ed.
