I know some of you have heard this....but bare with me... I am not sure what to do.
Ok....here is the deal.... there is a high pitch noise (like a belt that needs to be replaced or is off) and it sounds only when I give it gas. I have no tachometer at all. For a while there the tachometer would go in and out as the sound did. No the tachmeter is constantly out and the noise is constant. I thought it was the alternator, because that is where the noise was coming from, and it turns out the alternator was going bad, although that did not get rid of the noise.
There is also quite a bit of residue on the alternator clutch and other parts, which is from the belt itself. Now...I have checked the belt along with many of my guy friends and they see that the belt is on track.
I am thinking that it is a barring or something going out. Which stops turning and therefore causes the belt to rub. As for the Tachometer the hell if I know.
I need some advice. Tomorrow the land rover dealer has finally fit me in their schedule in order for me to pay $76.00 for a diagnose. I decided to not let them do an actually (electrical) diagnostic test because I do not think it is electrical.
I am waiting on the Discovery Manual (that I have ordered; the $150.00 bible for the Disco) which I am sure if I can see something to compare (a roadmap of some sort) then I could try to fix.
What do you think? Need advice.
