Sounds like alternatorbearings going out, but im deaf there, so.....
ignoring that sound is your pit fall. find noise with stethoscope $5


but again, i can hear it, touch it or diagnosis it, here we just guess
and most guessing is just useless waste. time and cash on useless new parts.

wont start later, does that mean wont crank
or
cranks robustly but will not start.

    get it serviced, or ask for help using tools, which way >? we can waste time guessing, or help you test, which do you want?. all auto stores, sell a rubber hose to find noise, or stethoscope for dirt cheap, using one is easy but dangerous, around moving parts, so, fell safe, there? that too is a personal decision, now my wild guessing. loose belts, or seized accesory bearings, (any) if engine wont crank, id guess, the battery is discharged, and the alternator is dead, or belt stripped. or caused by other accessories wrecking the belt. this is common, and purely a wild useless guess. just to show how guessing fails, (unheared un tested) btw, all mechanics first open hood, and use there natural stereo scopic hearing to find LOCATION of noise, did you try that , first? or just want wild guesing.

Sounds like a vacuum leak. Have helper use a piece of hose about 5 feet long to listen all over top of engine when first started to try to find noise.

G8D711S is not alarm system. This is Daytime Running Light module. You can pull out the connector, your front lights won't work when an engine start.

My GV 2002 has a Autostart AS1203 alarm system. There is a description on Internet.

Same problem for me. The car would idle at about 2500 when started from cold and about 3 miles on would not idle at all, resulting in the revs dropping off when changing gear or stopping. Also rather jerky in top gear unless thrashed - numerous trips to the garage for air idle valve, injectors etc. but still a problem! Have just found out that GVs are a bit prone to carbon build up in the throttle body - mine was almost blocked - it now feels like a different car.

Try these easy things...take off clean and reconnect the battery cables, take to Auto Zone for a FREE computer hook up. More than likely if the battery hook up doesn't work it's the oxygen sensor.

SOURCE: PO135 Error Code

Bank one stands for the same side as the number 1 cylinder. Sensor 1 is the first sensor in the bank, (closest to the engine or upstream).
In most cases you will find it on the drivers side\left hand side of the engine and above the catalytic converter. Look for it on the lower portion of the exhaust manifold.

2004 Suzuki Grand Vitara. The speedo isn't working and my radio doesn't work.

There are no fuses covering those because they are computer functions

03 suzuki grand vitara starts up in morning after 10 minutes its warm drive to town shut off wont start back starts and dies starts and dies 3 times then starts and runs till next shut off

check whether you do have a problem with your cam or crank sensor. Or the fuel pump whether when it gets warm stop working,(loosing the pressure ) These things you do need a specialist to check the sensors and the fuel pump.

My suzuki grand has a hard starting

Could be a long list of things.
Weak spark, too much or too little fuel, etc.
You'll need to check the spark at the plugs and try spraying carb cleaner into the air intake to try to determine if it is ignition or fuel related.

High pitch whining sound from engine

Check the power steering fluid if its low it could cause this. Also could be alternator, water pump, ac compressor, or idler pulley. My bet would be on the idler pulley, its the one that keeps the belt tension constant. Remove the belt and check this pulley for slack also spin it by hand.
Good luck, dont forget to rate.
