| No trouble lights so far , but the alternator is making a lot of noise
(roaring) and i can feel vibration from it. What'ya think the problem
is? bearing, brushes?? total replace or what? cost of rebuilt one?

Any time a rotating item makes a roaring noise, you know the bearings
are in trouble. It'll test fine.
Also, check to make sure you don't have the belt too tight -- that'll
put pressure on the bearing and cause it to roar. >> Stay informed about: 97 jetta 2.0 Alternator |
