okay so my cars been making this noise, i know theres alot of these kind of threads but none of them help me as i have covered whatever ends up being the issue with there car, okay so my car has been making a noise when i start it and drive and occasionally the noise stops for a while then starts again, but i havnt driven it much to suss out the noise because i didnt want to make it worse
anyways ive checked all the fluids and such and they dont seem to be the problem
the noise kind of sounds like a stick in a bike wheel and seems to be coming from the area around the alternater and other conponents that move around that area
so my theory is
-the alternater
-the oil(its above the full level, the dip stick was giving wrong readings and when i fixxed it it turned out i had over filled it a little bit)
-or mabey something to do with the auto transmission fluid(its at a good level but is a red-ie kind of colour)
i havnt been able to get it professionally looked at as i thought i would be able to cover it but so far im not to sure, any help would be very muchly appreciated
ALSO the other day is when the noise started and it was straight after i put petrol in a this station which i have gone on to find out has had heaps of complaints with dodgy petrol, could this have an effect my car?(the petrol i filled up is gone now and i have petrol from somewhere else) prehaps the fuel filter or something? i havnt gotten petrol from there since
