engine idle noise...

Just to update the thread, my mechanic found out it was the alternator! So getting that replaced with a Bosch refurbished one. As usual, not cheap, $700 for the whole job including the part.

Man that is a lot of money for a rebuilt unit.

Glad you found out what the issue was.

He had to spend some time figuring out what exactly the problem was, so for that, and the part, and installing the new part, I am ok with it.
