My first noise - Toyota Yaris Forums

I replaced the water pump and one of the noises went away, but another noise remains. My trusted mechanic says it's the bearings in the alternator (another $550-600 of repairs). It's strange that both of the noises started up during the same few weeks. Thanks for the help guys.
