Thats what it was on my BM, you could see all the lights flicker on tick over, when the revs were up you did not notice it.

Bollox its doing it on my mondeo, which is a V6 where they put the alternator in the most unreachable position you can think off.

Iam never buying another car with a V6 shoehorned into it, I had a winter hack Vectra V6, biggest pile of wank to work on!!
