I have a 2003 P5 and Friday the charging system started acting up. Wasnt getting any measurable output from the alternator. Took it to the dealer, since that was under warrenty from being replaced in November. Now they are saying they replaced the alternator and its still not working and that the PCM may be bad. They are telling me the voltage regulator is in the PCM/ECU and if thats bad it must be replaced. $1200 part OUCH!!!!
Anyone heard of this on these cars. Every car I have worked with had the regulator in the alternator. Just doesnt make sense.
Thanks all.
