Just changed my altenator and put the belts back on. I took it for a drive and it seemed alright. When i was coming back down the neighborhood i swirved it a little bit and I could hear this tapping sound. Sounds like a faint hammer tapping slightly. I drove it around some more. And if you go about 10-20mph you can hear it just tapping. It didn't do it this morning before my car died. It's doing it after we changed the altenator. It doesn't do it in idle at all. I had my theory that the fanbelt was tapping against something but I can't see anything. And everything looks perfect. What could be doing this? I need help bad. Thank You

Found the problem, lol. My rotors are worn down to the leading edge on the top. And it's hitting my brakes causing that hammering sound. I guess I never heard it cuz i had my music on all the time. Until I changed my altenator I heard it.
