Problem With My 2002 tt

I would be interested to know too. I am about to take it out and get another one! With lights, stereo, ac on I run just above 12 on the voltmeter. Is this normal for everyone else or should I be running at 13 plus with a heavy load?

which is the one specified for the tt and a bit more pricey

After driving nearly 30 miles to work the needle was registering a bit higher, call it 13.8 volts. A needle width under the 14 volt mark.
I wanted to turn on the AC for an electrical load but forgot to do this, but in the past when I've done this the voltage drops to 13 volts or a bit under.
Sincerely,
Macster.

I have been watching mine closely over the last few days and I think its ok. It seems to be around 13-13.5 pretty constantly while driving, (almost 14 at start up) but sometimes it dips for a sec to 12.5 or so. Gonna have it checked just to make sure.
