Just drive my car back after installed the alternator. After arrive home, I off my car for 15-20 minute while I cleaning my car. Then I start the engine again, normally I will turn my key to half way until the "airbag" light disappear then only will fully start the engine. While waiting the "airbag" light disappear, my volt reading(from MFD) is 12v+, after start the engine, it will increase to 13.3-13.5v, is it normal? I've heard that the reading is normal between 13-14v(correct me if I'm wrong). And I noticed there is 50% chances need few crank to spark the engine up. Thus I send back my car there and ask them to check for me. I'll leave my car there for few days, let them check whether this will happen again. Or maybe it is ok and just I'm over worry only.....
