Had a noisy bearing on the Alternator on the Rangy. so got a second hand unit. Bearing was worse than my current one. I really couldn't be bothered to get in a slanging match over 50 notes. So called him a pratt then went to bearing services and replaced the bearing. Problem was that showed up I had two noisy tensioners on the aux belt. So back down to B.S. and now all quiet.
