If your AudiQ3 is experiencing alternator issues, there are several clear indicators. Firstly, a dead battery is the primary sign. Although a dead battery doesn't always mean the alternator is faulty, a common cause of a dead battery is a bad alternator. If the battery has not completely died, you may observe the instrument panel being dim, malfunctioning, flickering, and making noise due to fluctuating power supply. Replacing the alternator typically costs between $300 and $500, covering both parts and labor. While it may be a bit expensive, it's necessary to address the issue promptly. Delaying the replacement can lead to the battery becoming unusable in a few weeks, incurring an additional cost of around $100. If you opt to replace the alternator yourself, you'll need to unbolt and remove it, but fortunately, it's conveniently located upfront for easy access.
