I joined the alternator club today. Replaced the battery too. Alternator was putting out 9v according to the nice parts store lady. Battery was original and over 5 years old.
The new rebuilt alternator puts out 14.2v, all is good.
Has anyone had tuning issues because of a bad alternator? It never threw any codes. I was out datalogging and the values started going screwy, the abs light went on, and the radio was surely posessed. Pulled over and the car wouldn't start. Got a jump and limped home.
I'm wondering how much of an effect a slowly deteriorating battery/alternator would have on things like maf voltage, fuel pumps, frps, etc., and if there are any first hand examples.
