No, it's been making this noise for years. I still think it's something
loose in the generator/fan area.

Yes, all my lights and such work properly. This was the first time it
ever came on while I was driving. Lloyd thinks someone may have
tampered with my car and let the oil out---he says it happened to him.
I don't park on the street, but I do leave it in parking lots while I'm
shopping, etc. Seems a little paranoid to me, but who knows? Their are
a lot of nasty people out there.
