The other night on my way to work I started to get a whine coming from the front of the engine. As with a turbo the whine gets louder as the rpm goes up. I have tried taking off the drive belts to isolate the sound but the sound did not quit. Any ideas where the sound would be coming from? Oil pressure is fine, no over heating, and no burning smells
