Just had another look and its charging at around 14v at idle with nothing on.

As soon as you load it with aircon etc it goes down to just over 12v.

So it is charging some, but not as much as it should.

Does that still point to the alternator?

Annoyingly the wife got a puncture earlier in a good as new dunlop sport tyre and proceeded to drive home so thats a new tyre to add to the bill, then my tooth fell in half and will need a crown so thats another couple of hundred on the bill - all in all a costly day.
