+1 alternator is fudged. 

I just went through the pleasure of installing a. Delphi recon alternator £140 which failed mechanically after two days, total junk rubbish inside....... never again. 

If the shop did bearings and slip ring, the real weak point aside from mechanical wear is the regulator pack, it will breakdown intermittently and output will drop, new battery would have masked the issue temporarily. 

In the end I bought a new Hitachi unit from amazon for £585 and got it sent to me in UAE from UK for £70. 

Don't rule out the ves but for me alternator is my diagnosis assuming you check all the obvious connections for tightness and corrosion.

Is it possible for a dirty or bad connection to cause such low voltage. Due to location, it's seemingly impossible to check alt post directly to see if alt output is good and the cable or connection is the issue. It seems odd that it ran fine for a while then piled up again leading me to believe cable and connection are good as I doubt the CTT would run more than an hour on battery. Just reaching for options before having to tear car apart again.:angry::clapping:. Also, is there a way to diagnose the VES and where is it located in case a re&re is necessary.
