[QUOTE="KevH, post: 489238, member: 16451"] This might sound obvious, but try popping an additional shim in, to slacken the belt 'just a tad'. That whirring could be the alternator straining a little under an over tight belt. Better to replace a belt than an alternator. Those on the forum with a lot more knowledge than I have (I am pretty piss poor at this to be honest) might have other thoughts. :D [/QUOTE]
