After changing the battery I thought all would be OK and it was until I drove home from our trip out. The ABS, BAS & EPS warning indicators came on. The users manual says this is because voltage is 10v or less. I am suspecting the alternator has failed and needs to be replaced. Does anyone have...

Have had a scare tonight while driving back home - both the battery and orange brake wear lights both came on without warning. Couldn't see anything obviously wrong under the bonnet, and the engine was happily ticking over.
The lights were bright when idling, but dimmed...

Visited mechanic with a different problem on weekend and he pointed out that alternator clutch needs to be replaced. He said that better to get it done now before the whole alternator goes.
He asked me to switch on engine and lock steering in one direction. There was a vibration and it was on...
Hello
Just started tonight getting problems.
When starting the car the Check Battery and oil lights do not come on.
When at idle the battery light and low water bottle glows very very dim. When reving or driving the lights go out.

The alternator has decided to pack up on my W140 S600 and the car is currently parked outside my Indie, who said the part will be 450 gbp on it's own.
I called ECP earlier today who can do a rebuilt lucas alternator for 328 gbp. I haven't called the main dealer of gsf yet. I did check euromerc...
I've already posted this query over on the 190 forum but lots of different people here who may be able to help.....
Some advice needed from those who know more than I do about rough engine idle and a possible link to alternator output, that will be most people as I know very little :o...
Hello folks,
It's a long time since I've been around these parts, 2 nicely running W203's means that I don't really frequent as much as I should.
How that has just changed !
Last week the serpentine belt idler pulley was making a racket.. to be fair it's been grumbling for a LONG time but...
I have finally managed to track down the tool for the alternator pulley(Amazon of all places). The question now is there a bolt holding the pulley on, therefore do I loosen with the ratchet while holding the pulley still. Just checking as mine seems to be very tight and do not want to break...
I suspect the alternator in my W201 '84 2.0 petrol 190E is not behaving as it should and may need replacing. Now rather than buy one and turn out to be wrong I thought I might try and swap it for the alternator from my W124 '94 E220. Are they a straight swap or is there more to it than that...

Following this thread ( http://www.mbclub.co.uk/forums/engine/117207-w210-e320-cdi-alternator-pulley.html ) posted yesterday. Today the pulley fell off.
The pulley started chirping on Sunday. On Monday my Indie advised it was the alternator pulley. I started my research...
