Weird Noise

Hello guys. I have a 2000 Camry with over 210,000 miles. Occasionally I’ll hear a whirring electric sounding type of noise coming from the front of the car once I press on the throttle. When this occurs it’s quite noticeable, any cause for concern?

It could be a bearing going out in the idler pulley or the alternator.  Get a long metal bar and put it on the suspect and the other end near your ear.  You will hear it with the engine running.
