I dont have any problems with the car so i dont know if it needs changing or not. It has like this high pitch chirping sound like cha cha cha cha cha over and over and you rev it a little and sound disappears. P.S Its not the secondary air pump guys i checked that with the mech loll __________________ Live Everyday As If Its Your Last A friend is someone who is willing to step into a flame to save you........aka a 318ti | | | 06-18-2007, 06:03 AM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2005 Location: çî†ÿ øf åNgëL§, CA Posts: 5,314 | I got your replacement alternator if it is the alternator gary.
