Hi, I have an 08 Y and everything has been great up until about 10 days ago. I noticed a "high pitch" zing type noise, sort of random.. whether in Gear, Neutral, Reverse, etc. Now it has gone to a steady knocking, and yesterday for the first time, I could feel the knocking in the shifter. I have an appt with my Dealer,... who thought it might be the Alternator or Water Pump? I have been reading about the Alternator.. and doesn't seem at all what it is.... and the Water Pump.... I don't think so either (but what do I know) lol

Anyways... let the GONG begin
