Replace the voltage regulator!!!!!
Having my convertible towed to your bro's house due to a dead VR while on the highway opened my eyes to replace it in my 9K for good measure.
They're extremely easy to do (remove two screws, pull out old one, pop in new one, and tighten screws while holding the new one in place as it's under tension while in the alternator), and cheap.
Site sponsor: $25
Auto Parts store: $40
Dealer/stealer: $70
These prices are for the exact same Bosch part!
Take what is happening right now as warning signs...
