do u got the option underdrive pulley?

cause that will cause that to happen.

u'll see it if u got a good eye.

same with the head lights... put ur a/c on at night and wait at idle for a lil and then rev the car and u'll notice that..

it's the ud pulley caue it's on the plateau of generating power.

sall good... it took me forever to figure that out on my probe... i went as far buying the old pulley and replacing it with new belts obv... and that solved it. My car couldn't even run the a/c at idle with the underdrive pulley. lol so it took me forever to prove to myself wtf it was.

so i saved u all some time hopefully. cause that was a nightmare to deal with back then for rookie me.

it's shit like that which is why i work on my own car now tho.. all thanks to my shitty probe

the only time I noticed my headlights getting dimmer was towards the end of my battery's life when they would dim slightly when starting the car, put the new battery in and all is good 900+CCA for these Minnesohsocolda winters :p

Are they LED bulbs? Voltage drop is my guess. Voltage goes back up once you stab the gas.

optima will, fix it.

no doubt but then it will do the same shit eventually in the end bro.. cause it's only got so many re-charge lifespan

so technically any battery will do it in the end, cause u will hit that point at which it is maxed out. So really it's something u just gotta live with for the hp
