no worries, no real rush. I actually paint stripped my tag to see if there was anything underneath the paint. There wasn't! I still had my dulux sticker tho.

And whoever put my alarm in thought it would be clever to mount the siren on the tag, so I have to unscrew it to see the chassis number, the WoF guy was really unimpressed last time..

And older people never drive drunk or crash eh? Oh wait, that's right, it just doesn't make the news!

And the hydraulics are a rare sight in a VL. He was selling his sound system on trade me a while back, might be able find him on there somehow. K, I havn't searched, so I'm not gonna start a new thread about it. But does anyone have any stories about faulty alternators? What was the process of it playing up? I think mine is dieing, or maybe it's something else. Was driving on Saturday night and all of a sudden my battery warning light turned on and the voltmeter has dropped to a couple of bars above the red, was still driving fine and everything, and it would come and go (would jump back up to full power). Tightened up the battery terminals on Sunday (the negative was a bit loose, but not much) and it was fine all day, then it came and went on my way to work, and on the way home the volt needle slowly dropped from halfway down to the second white line. Looks like I'm driving the 2L for a while..

sounds like a possible wiring short try driving with alt disconnected (charge battery first) or put your 2lt alt on

Check the terminals on the back of the alternator, make sure they are clean and tight. Best to disconnect battery 1st, It sounds like either loose connections or worn out brushes/dodgy control circuit in the alternator.
