Multiple problems with my 92 vp wagon

[PUSHIN]

glad to hear your problem is solved, honestly; i'd of baught a second hand alternator (well, i actually did..) i got a similiar qoute for a new one, but went and spent $80 on a second handie instead, haven't had an issue since. Are you still having the issue with your electrics? i used to have a similiar problem, as i was driving along, the car would occasionally cut out all electrics, then they'd come back on, then back off.. was VERY confusing lol.. it turned out to be an earth wire, went about bought one for about $20, was about 5 times thicker, and i've secured it bloody well, won't be having that issue again.. good luck with it mate!

I was thinking of doing that at first, but I'd rather have a brand new one that I know will last me for ages than get a second hand one that might break fairly quickly. You seem to have gotten lucky with yours but I didn't really want to take that risk, I wouldn't be able to afford to replace it AGAIN. And as to the issue with the electrics, they're fine now. Everything seems to have cleared up when the new alternator was put in...odd. But anyway, it's all good now and I'm happy
Cheers
