Subject: C900S  weird tin-y chatter coming from under the hood


All, Classic 900S owner looking for some help - The sound has grown progressively worse in the last two days, now there's a slight squeak associated with it - theres a clinking/pinging sound coming from an area very near the alternator, sounds like a thin piece of metal being tapped, similar to the sound a pot lid would make - the sound speeds up with the motor and at times I think I can feel it in the steering column and clutch pedal. I need to narrow down the culprits as I live 40 miles from a Saab specialist. If it's the alternator that's gone bad I can take it to a BMW mech I trust. I had a monster service done 5k ago - replaced the auto trans with a manual, CV joints, head gasket, timing chain, brakes, 90k tuneup. Any advice greatly appreciated !
