See if you can fit a volt meter in somewhere to see what's going on.
Don't buy a cheap alternator , they don't last .....I know.

Re: S1 Alternator change

What model of S1 do you have? There were models with misfire detection units installed and one of the lights would flash yellow and force into limp if it detected misfires. The other culprits were coil packs, leads etc that could set it off so may be worth exploring if it is alternator or other fac...

Hope you all have a gre...
