When I start up my car there is a whirring sound. I opened the hood the other day and I could also here a ping ping pinging sound. What could cause this? Thank you so much.

Hello, I'm Danny.

It's hard to diagnose sounds without hearing in person.What we ask is to make a video with your cell phone and upload it here.Hope this helps and we hear back from you soon with a video.Thanks for using 2CarPros.

I took it to two mechanics and they both said it was the altenator that a bearing was loose. Thank you though, I do appreciate you answering :) Have a wonderful day.
