So I guess I didn’t need a girlfriend to put up with whining after all.

It seems my car is doing plenty of whining all on its own. After I got it back from the service center in Kingston and started it up the next morning in Lake George, I heard this wailing noise while it idled, almost like a wraith was trapped somewhere inside the engine. After doing some…
