I have a 1999 chevy lumina 3.1L, when car is at idle it noisy almost sounds like a sterring pump. As you drive it will whine with the speed of the car it has 73000 miles on it its been doing this since around 39000 miles. If you can tell me what this may be I appreciate it. Thank You.

The pattern you describe is consistent with an alternator going bad. Maybe the fields are already rubbing together. Test it this way: Start the car and leave on idle, when the whine is worse, then start using up electricity, by increasing the demand. Turn on AC, then lights, then full blower and then high beams. If there is a change in the whine, then either alternator or voltage regulator is the culprit. When a compressor pulley bearing is bad, noise shifts just by turning AC on and off.

cause the little plastic wheel the drives the odmeter is slipping on the shaft in the speedo head
