Here are several suggestions and answers from FAQ Farmers: * It could be the belt for your alternator, as that's what happened with my car. * One possibility would be the brake pad wear sensor. Another would be a loose or slipping serpentine belt. It depends on the sound and how it builds when you start moving.
