If indeed the volt. reg is bad. how long can I drive the car? Since this car is a diesel, I only need electric to start the car and run the radio and lights. However I could avoid driving the car at night to lesson my electrical usage. Or is the car a dead duck for now. As for the fan clutch, fortunately it's not summer yet so the temps aren't up there. I can live with some bearing noise until I get a new one. Opinions?
