Got a van the wife wants to buy, she likes it a lot
97 T+C LXi, leather, dual power seats, traction control etc.Its got a squeal that apears to be comming from the alternator/PS pump area at near idle she says. I've not had a chance to drive it etc yet, but i had a similar sound from an old 89 golf a few years back, and the alternator had gone bad. Is it, as my suspicions suggest, a bad alternator, and if so, how much and how easy is it to do ourselves, or should we just walk away (or see if the dealer will do it)
