    Further jacking- I've been dealing with intermittent loss of the rear defroster. The dashboard light will go out and I have to turn the defrost back on.

    It turns off after a certain time. This is normal.

    It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.

    Quick update:

    I first swapped the voltage regulator, which didn't exactly improve my results- still at low voltage, car would die pretty quick.

    Went ahead and did a whole new alternator swap in a parking lot- all good now! 13.5v+ and charging the battery as it should.

    Super thankful for the huge e46/ZHP community out there. I learned a ton this week.
