This evening I got the little battery dash light indicating an issue with the charging system. It cleared after I started the car and then came back on after I drove a short while. Got home and checked the voltage: engine off I have 12.48 volts across the battery. Engine running I have 12.44. All connections appear to be solid. I noticed a "whine" when the engine runs; that started when I had the AC compressor replaced in May so I thought it had to do with that. It increases when I depress the gas pedal.
The Liberty has 149k miles (107k are mine) so I am thinking I am due. If it is an alternator, any recommendations?...easiest for me is Duralast from Azone as they are a block away. The 160 amp version is about $140.
Thanks in advance for your comments.
