'08 base GP. been having a whine under the hood that could use a Talkin from my ex on how to really whine.;)
and its coming from the alternator. im assuming a new one is in the near future.
any recommendations on replacement brands or since electrical stick to AC Delco?
 


I went to a local car recycle place and got a stock used one for $30. Slapped it on and away I went. Still works fine.
 
local rebuilder near me charges 80 for a rebuilt alt. they also do starters. they have em waiting on the shelf ready to go, and if they dont, they can rebuild your old one in a few hrs time.

​well worth a google search to see if you got one local.

I've been in west metro Detroit 10 years now. used to live up in West Branch. there was a rebuilder down the road and around the corner from me. I've been there quite a few times. he let me sit and watch him rebuild a starter off my truck once.
I don't know why I didn't think of looking for one down here. thanks for giving my melon a jogging!
