My 240, after driving for about an hour, will suddenly have huge voltage spikes. the volt gauge will peg, lights get really bright, etc. The spikes last about 1-5 seconds, then the car settles down for a bit before doing it again. I'm guessing this could only be the voltage regulator (which is only a year old...grrr), but if there are any other possibilities, I'd love to hear it. thanks,

Nate Gundy
