It could be the voltage regulator playing up in the alternator.
Check with a voltmeter on the battery terminals to see if your getting 14.4 volts at the battery, the regulator is ok. If the voltage is lower than 13.6 volts or higher than 14.8 volts, its the regulator at fault.
Hope this helps

If you want the ignition barrel only, Turn the key to position 1 & there should be a little lever that you need a little screwdriver to push in. You should be able to withdraw the barrel.

It works beautifully.

Its very similiar on MK6 to the MK4. You still have release the bottom ball joint (swivel joint) & the track rod end from the hub to get enough movement to release the cv joint. Whereabouts are you m8?

There should be a thick red wire that goes to the starter (13mm nut) for the battery feed then a thin black wire (10mm nut or female spade terminal) ignition switiched feed on the starter. All of the above wires should be taped together as a separate loom What make is the alternator? (Motorcraft, bosch or carello)

Hi Paul,
There should be a thick red cable from the battery to the starter & the alternator wires should be in the wiring loom.
Hope that helps you M8
