koolkat1973 is on a distinguished road
I have also noticed that when I first start the car, the voltage reading would drop from 12V to 11.5V for about 30 seconds or so. The car would hesitate during this time until the alternator kicks on and the voltage ready goes up to 14.5V on idle. Is it normal for the alternator to take 30 seconds or so to turn on after engine is started?
