Some story of how things happened.

My mom's car has been running this ICE thingy for about 10 years, before passing the car to me in 2010, the car started to have issue on not able to start up and need to jump start the battery in order to start, upon checking by the workshop people, it was the alternator that is malfunctioned, problem then solved after replacing with a new one.

Once i got the car and driving from 2010-2013, the alternator is having issue again and replacing a new one solve the issue as well, and right now at the moment i'm facing this issue also.

The car is a Proton Wira 1.5 if its a concern.

The setup is 2 amp, 2 small sub (10-12" i think), 4 speakers, 2 tweeters. (i not sure how to explain the proper map structure for the setup as i do not have knowledge on how ICE work, my mom is clueless too.)

Thanks for all the comment, but is there any possibility that an aged amp will cause some instability of power usage?

Since i notice amp's box stated the wattage of the amp like PC's power supply, i'm worrying when an amp is aged very long time, the power output will become unstable.

Replace with recon alternator, china one or ori new unit? Recond/china one doesn't last long IMO

I never checked as i put fully trust on the workshop people since we have been dealing for so many years, but i will check it out later if its ori or a recond one since i started to learn about cars, PC is getting boring lel.
