Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ok, so..started driving the car and within 20 min I got a battery light, brake distribution, brake generator, psm, abs and the car would not make any boost. Pulled over and shut the car off. Started up fine, and started driving. Happened again. This time I noticed the battery gauge was pegged out at 17. Got the car home and pulled the codes. All I had was cats and o2 sensors. ( I have straight pipes) and now the car won't even start. Strong fuel smell. Disconnected the battery for 15min. I did notice the battery was hot and I could see fluid going through the overflow tube. Reconnected the battery and the car started fine. Idled fine. Drove it and within 20 feet all the lights went off again. Car started with 13-14v and gradually went to Max again. 17+ still makes no boost. I ordered a voltage regulator, and will try that in a couple days. Anyone else with experiences or ideas?
