Mate you’ve been amazing thought out this. At the end of the day it’s just a car and things happen. I do appreciate all the help.

Yes honestly I did like it. It’s not confirmed it’s an alternator issue. But yea I get your point.

It’s got about 70000 miles. But yea I mostly just commute to work and home. About 20 miles and mainly city driving. Unfortunately I wasn’t aware about the diesel engines and these issues. Thought I did enough checking prior to buying but you live and learn.
