    So I have replaced the alternator on the Prelude, (215000Kms)very easy once
    I removed the motor
    mount and raised the motor up a few inches, even
    easier than my 98 civic.

    Anyways, I noticed during the test drive that
    there is a very faint *pop* noise when I hit the
    accelerator pedal. The noise is coming from the
    speakers! When the stereo is off, there is no
    noise.

    NOTE: I replaced the brushes and bearings on the
    alternator. I then brought it in to get it
    tested at the local autoparts store, and it
    passed. Not a big fan of these testing machines
    as it gives no relevant data, just a PASS or a
    FAIL.

    Also, It appears that there is a filter on the
    back of the alternator, I left it in place.

    Any ideas? should I be concerned?
