Reviews of Bosch alternator

I had a car get flooded for 6 months and the Bosh alternator still worked perfectly for another 21 years. Would buy again

Fcp euro has an 100amp bosch one that works well. They have a lifetime warranty too.

Bought a new bosch alternator and installed it.

I had a Bosch alternator die in <6 months. Got installed in November 2024 and it died a few weeks ago.

I'm swapping my 90a Valeo alternator for a remanufactured Bosch one. (Which actually says Valeo on it but has a Bosch part number and came in a Bosch box.)

Funny enough, I just did this dance today! Found a nearly new looking Bosch unit that someone had already kindly removed from the wrecker's car for me. Got it installed and tested exactly like yours though, so I'm happy.

I have replaced my alternator with a good "?" Bosch alternator and it charged for 3 days but now the battery light is on until the motor is above 2500 rpm

imo take it back and grab a new Bosch from FCPEuro - https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/volvo-alternator-bosch-al157x

I picked up a 07 jetta 2.5 from the auction for a good deal and only 95k on it. The problem is the battery is not charging, figured ok needs new alternator put a bosch unit in and it is still not charging the battery. Put multi meter to the post on alternator and it is only putting off 11.5v.

There is a Bosch unit that will fit with the same connectors, but the pulley is usually different. I went to a local auto electric shop and they asked about the current I wanted at what revs and they built a Bosch unit with the appropriate coils and fitted my old pulley. Plug and play, and it's been flawless for 10 years or more.
