BL, your alternator is intermittent and weak. A graceful degradation of performance is pretty typical of a failing alternator.

As for labor - apparently the correct r and r calls for going in from underneath. It can be done from the top, but appears to me to be a pia which is why I didn't do it myself. I'm pretty sure the final install bill (minus parts) was close to $600. They wanted $1200 for the oem alternator alone!

That said, my alternator lasted 7-8 years, so your alternator will likely last longer than the shop's warranty period (usually 12 mos.) anyway.
