Whats on my mind? Alternator started whining like a supercharger when I started my car and voltage was down to 11.5 volts. Managed to make the 45 minute drive back to town and as I go and turn on to my street I lose power steering and a message pops up saying service power steering.... SMH

you sure it was your alternator? ps pumps make a high whine when they're dying (some gm water pumps too).

considering the alternator is making a huge whine when I use the good ol mechanics stethoscope and pinpoint the noise to the alt and voltage is kind of normal at high rpms Im sure its that..
right now no idea with the power steering it comes and it goes. not sure if its alt related or what. -
that stehtoscope is a mechanics best friend thats for sure. sucks man, i hope its a voltage thing and can get sorted quick. just be safe driving, ive see na fuckton of accidents in the last 2 days. people lose their minds driving around xmas
