Hello all,
I was hoping you could lend some advice. I own a 99 ML 430 and recently I started to hear a bearing going in the front, well it went this week, it was in the alternator. I have two questions:
1) Would I be better off buying a new one or trying to fix this one?

2) Why wouldn't the vehicle start after it died with a jump from another vehicle? (It had been running fine until the alternator went kaputz)

Thanks and happy holidays,
Bill
