Best Answer

Bad bearings in an alternator would make a grinding or roaring sound. If a Diode Plate is failing you might hear a buzzing sound in the radio that changes pitch with the speed of the engine.

Don't ignore that kind of sound. Find out what is causing it and replace or repair the faulty part. A "grinding noise" can be caused by an alternator, water pump, idler pulley, heater fan motor, air pump or any of a long list of components, many of which can cause some serious problems if they seize or come apart.

What kind of noise does the sun make?

The sun is situated in outer space, which is a vacuum. Sound does not travel through a vacuum, so from where we sit, the sun is silent. It makes no noise. If you (impossibly) were sitting on the sun, it would be very noisy indeed, with enormous pressures and continual explosions like Hydrogen bombs. Your ears would be destroyed in microseconds by the intensity of the noise. The sun does make a lot of a different kind of noise. This is electronic noise. The sun makes noise across the whole radio frequency spectrum, which can be picked up on radios.
