I say your alt is getting ready to go out. Mine did this for about couple weeks before I had to change it out. However I had like 165K miles on mine as well..

alt. is going out... mine went out last week and i had to get it towed home. it was doing the same thing as urs. i tested it one day and it was fine, then two days later it died. go to a salvage yard and pick up a used onefor like $40, they are around $250 at most autoparts stores

most likely. Yiou could go to the junkyard or if you have an advance auto parts around you can buy a refurbished onee with a lifetime warranty. Its like $180 I had one on my v6 and it lasted 3 years and I brought it in and got another one for free

edit: you will have to bring in yours and give it too them or else you get a core charge and if advance isnt up in VA then maybe autozone might have lifetime warrantys on the alts too.
