Rubble/Growling Engine Noise
Was at the dealer today for some engine noise concerns, I just stopped in to see if I was right hearing that noise being abnormal. Noise description: makes loud like growling or rubble kind of noise. Engine runs fine but that noise does not sound right. I have had that noise for a while now, now it really has gotten louder. The service writer seemed nice and told me it could be a worn out alternator bearing or a pully or something like that??? So i schedualed an appointment for next week.
Any hints???

Was it a low rumbling that usually ocurred at idle? Mine just started making the sound, once the revs climb it goes away. BTW, what did they charge for the part? Total cost? I may look into changing the water pump myself. My 8 has almost 90K miles, usually change out water pumps when timing belt needed....but that schedule doesn't work with the rotary...thanks for the info.
