youre kinda vague about where the sound is coming from. if its from the engine bay area it could be a worn belt or bad water pump.

Sounds like a loose alternator belt. Loosen the 12mm bolt on top of the alternator and tighten it up. Belt should have 1/4" of deflection.

sorry for not being specific but yeah it is from the engine bay i dont think it can be the waterpump or timing belt they are new but the loose alternator belt sounds more like it is this easy to fix. thanks for the help.
