Driving last night somewhat aggressively and when the car got up near red line the battery light started flashing and the car almost died. Alternator????
Thanks for your help.
It's just a warning sign.
The brushes in the alternator are worn, and need to be replaced soon.
The problem here is that there isn't a Regulator/Brush kit for our Alternators.
It has to be replaced as a whole unit, and from what I've heard,
the axle needs to be pulled to make the necessary clearance for the Alternator removal.
How many miles do you have ?
I've got 82,000 and counting...
