So...I think I need a new alternator cuz I can't start the darn G60 w/o the battery being dead! Checked everything possible and unhooked everything that connects to the battery! Went to 4 techs and 1 of the 4 said that the voltage meter indicates mine needs to be replaced. (the others tested it when the car was running fine and not when it was dead) Anyone have any results and answers for me? I would really appreciate it!

change your battery wires, battery and alternator. 100$ from 1800vwparts for the alternator. its rebuilt..they give you a choice. change your crummy wires too. i made mine out of 02 gauge wire and i just swapped batteries at sears. my bigass battery is also in the trunk becasue i was gonna put an intercooler there but its getting a swap.
