Hello guys. The voltage regulator on Altenator has decided to step down. Replaced headlight and spot globes twice in a week. Sommer go 17-18V whilst idling. Battery also swollen. Phoned local Midas and Autozone. They don't stock these. Any idea where I can get a new one for decent price? Will contact Bosch tomorrow, but getting some advice for now.

Re: Altenator Voltage regulator.
That's a bummer!
Hope your battery isn't damaged!
Would have thought Bosch was your best bet, else it's a trip to the Stealers.
Good luck man!

Re: Altenator Voltage regulator.
Robbie jy kan ook die auto electricians probeer. Ek het destyds n ekstra een by hulle koop toe ek my alternator laat re-wire het om 90A te laai. Boch regulator part nr 1197 311 090 prys R185.00.Jy dalk minder betaal as jy hom direk by Bosch (Diesel - Electic) koop.
