Is that battery crud caused by overcharging? I can't stop it from happening. We have 2 of the same cars - one, the battery goes flat, the other gets the green stuff on the positive terminal only. Perhaps I should switch batteries over??? Shit - they want $1200 for an alternator and say they're unrepairable. Well, I took one apart, (a second-hand sacrificial unit), and it doesn't look super different to any other alternator I've ever seen... Annoying, so have a solar trickle charger on the one that dies, and guess what? It doesn't die anymore, so likely a faulty diode allowing he battery to drain. Just a pain in the ass to remember to hook it up when the thing's going to be parked up for more than around 3 days. Dunno. Solar charger good. Green crud bad.
