whatever you do do not run that battry any longer it may have already killed the alternator im on my 4th alternator right now. when i baught my car the stock original one was bad so it was replaced under waranty through the dealer. but the same battery was used. a month later my alternator goes again but i baught a battery( from autozone ) thinking it was ok turns out my old battery was bad and it what caused the alternator to die. thats how the second one went. the autozone battery died less than a yera later so they replaced it under warrant less than a yera latter my battery goes so i replaced it with whatever brand it was that tire kingdom sells since i was workign there. turns out autozone gave me the wrong battery twice. they had gave me a 41 instead of a 47. so i had drove home with my new correct battery. the next day im losing power because i was runnign off just the battery. and thats how i got to the 4th alternator. so whatever you do dont get a autzone battery. and if the battery you get isnt big and doesnt fill all the space it might be the wrong one. so far its been all good but i need a new positive cable. the factory one looked bad. i might change both terminals out tommorow.
