    ?Alternator and Overheating?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I asked a buddy to rev the S4 till redline to hear my exhaust from the back but all of the sudden coolant started leaking from the bottom of the engine and the car went into a complete craz fest. The battery died and the alternator quit working, the car went into limp mode and shit hit the fan. I read the computer with an OBD and i got a high voltage code and a torque converter code can anyone shine some light on me pleas?

    One of your many problems sounds like a bad voltage regulator. So i would just go ahead and do the whole alternator. As for anything else i dont know. Wheres the coolant coming from?
