yes! i have had the voltage regulator problem before! it takes literally 5 minutes to fix or replace. i thought about that originally, but wasnt sure. i will take it to him and have him do it however, beause it was done 2 mos ago an i dont wanna void any warranty on it by messing with it. i have a question....ive been driving my car around, i dont seem to be losing any power, ie, headlights dont dim at night, a/c works fine, etc....is my car safe to drive or will it die on me?
