Adrian_D 520 Posted August 9, 2006 just looked at the alt on dad's mk4...120a. guess it's pretty decent for a stock one...werd i have a 120amp as wellpretty big fuses in the fuse box on the battery : 150a, 110a, 50a, 40a and 30a. can;t remember how many of each. i looked while dad was working on the oil pan. stooped german engineering : they tapped the cast aluminium oil pan and use a steel screw. that way, when you change the oil you can bust the oil pan thread and have to retap it. just went through that. pretty nasty when you don;t lift the car on an elevator. and don't have all the tools a service has, 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
