anyone have any experience with 850 alternator, P/S or serp belt developing a loud turbine-like whine. My wife's 855T, 125K, has developed a significant whining that eminates from the area around P/S/Alternator. Loud enough that pedestrians stare! Does not change in volume with turning steering or putting full load on electrical system. No, it's not A/C. Do we just let alter run to failure, or is there a fix?
