Brand new alternator has been bought, and replaced the old one.
I think the cost was around $800

Plus the labour for few hours,
all up $1000+

the phone call from the warranty company letting me know that its all been paid for: Priceless

I recommend to purchase a warranty with your car to everyone, if you have a jap import

I dont know how they make money....

My poor battery!!
Poor thing is brand new, had less then 30 hours of work,
And already flattened around 10 times
It seems ok for now, but I donâ€™t think it will survive for long,
They donâ€™t work well even after once it goes flat,
Better get a new one soon, what a waste of $200
