charging problem ? Clio 99 RT



  Clio 172 RS ph1
hello,
today i checked the charging on the battery, i got 13.5V on idle.
with light 13.2V (xenon Kit)
with amp 13.2-13.3V
with both 12.9V
on the alternator im getting 14.1-14.2V.
where im missing 0.7V ? some friend told me to rewire the cable from alternator to the battery, a newer cable something like 4G will make the job ?
is it a single cable from the alternator to the battery ? nothing between them ?
Thank you very much !
​Daniel.
