It could be a bearing in your alternator that has gone out. Start your car and do whatever it takes to reproduce the sound. When the vehicle is making the sound, put a screw driver against your alternator and put your ear against the other side of the screw driver. If you hear the whining noice clearly through the screw driver, it's probly the alternator. Move the screw driver around the area and see if the noise that is passed through the screw driver is louder anywhere else, besides the alternator. If not, it's coming from your alternator. You can use a long screw driver or any solid piece of material, but the handle of a screw driver is a little more comfortable against your ear than other options.
There is no Power Steering Filter on a 2002 Subaru Legacy/Outback.
top of front of engine, under alternator
Directly below the alternator on the block.
Remove belt guards, loosen alternator hold-down bolt, loosen belt tensioner, remove belt, unhook power steering line clamps and lines at reservoir, remove reservoir and pump. Reinstallation is reverse of disassembly.
it doesn't have one the alternator is regulated in side
could be something with the steering or with the power steering pump.
If an alternator is going bad it can cause a rough idle in a 1993 Subaru Legacy. Cold temperatures in the winter can also cause a rough idle in the Subaru Legacy.
Yes it should, since the are of the 3rd generation Legacy Outback. But don't quote me on this...
Turn the steering wheel back and forth if that doesn't work try that screw under the steering column
It's on the top of the steering column, just behind the steering wheel.
Great bitterness towards Sherman for burning down so much of the city.
AnswerNo. The air conditioning belt only drives the compressor. The other belt drives the alternator and power steering pump. The water pump is driven by the timing belt. Technically you only need the timing belt to be functioning to be able to 'drive' the car under it's own power. It would however be running off battery power alone and would have no power steering.
