Usually, but not all the time, it's the power steering that whines,check to see if your fluid is low, if not, might need to be replaced and the clicling noise sounds like a low battery. Charging system may not be charging the battery [possible alternator going or is bad] corroded battery posts or attachment cables are dirty, need to be cleaned. Hope this helps.
Hello fellow car buffs,
Just a bit about myself: worked for my company 31 years and retired. Usually work on my own cars, but, when I bought my Jag, whoa, a whole new world there! Can help a bit with American built [USA USA USA], just glad to be part of this community!
