Batteries charge at 14 volts so I'm guessing the car was on whenyiu measured it? If thats the case then the alternator is fine. A rearing of 8.9v is too low for a healthy battery, so it could have adeqd cell. Either way, get the battery tested (takes 2 minutes) just to be sure.

Eric, I've told you before its your turbo. Best if you take it off and give it to me.

It will be your battery, leaving your lights on must have discharged your battery.

If your get stuck at uni and need a jump, just give me a call
