I know you shouldn't tow an automatic, but... I'm working for the US Embassy in Angola and I have been using my Explorer for some pretty serious African off-roading. I was about 40 miles from Luanda when my little girl's electrics stopped working, windows, radio and so forth. I just reached the shade of a tree when the car just gave up all hope. After about 3 hours of waiting a rather nice female French oil worker happened by and offered to tow me in to town.
I replaced the alternator and the Explorer roared in to life. However, there is now a sort of very dull whine noise coming from the front end.
What have I ruined by towing the Explorer?
