Hi 56 plate when bought 5 months ago had a new battery and alternator fitted ran OK for 3 weeks then battery went flat. Battery was removed and charged and fitted back in car. Started fine then lost pas, abs light was on and a few others but can't remember which.After a short drive and opening bonnet there was battery acid leak and fluid bubbling up in battery and alternator putting 19v to battery. Car towed to garage and they replaced both battery and alternator.have noticed on new sealed battery where charge status indicator is that there is sometimes a small amount of battery fluid so guessing it must be overcharging again sometimes every time I check with voltmeter it is 13.8v when engine running. Is there any common fault to check as to why it may be overcharging or will it just be faulty alternator?
Thanks
