I noticed last nite as I was driving that my amps gauge was in the red. I kept driving and it was only going down and not up..in other words my battery wasnt charging anymore. It started getting really close to "0amps" so I just pulled over parked my car and called my brother to come and give me cables. The battery charged up really quickly so I knew it wasnt the battery. Im going to go check my alt. right now at the parts store to make sure thats what it is before I buy one :( Its like $87..what a waste.

Heh, very common problem. Mine went out recently and my friend with a 96 is on like his 3rd. I got a NAPA one, hopefully it will be better than the autozone ones hes been using.<b>Matt</b><br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/member_pages/view_page.pl?page_id=377225&page=1\" target=\"_blank\">\'96 Camaro Z28 M6</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/member_pages/view_page.pl?page_id=377225&page=3\" target=\"_blank\">\'96 Camaro M5</a>Comment

This comes as a suprise to me, I thought the 3.4's were the ones to eat the alternator's and the 3.8's were good? oh well learn something new every day.~chris~ 98 Cayenne red Camaro 3800 A4, 3:08, T tops Borla cat-back, wisper lid K&N, Bilstine shocks, Dunlops all around. <br />AOL IM: chevyboyz24Comment
